H110 pro BTC+ Motherboard up in smoke!!!

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I have a AsRock h110 pro btc plus. I installed my Pentium G4400, a Corsair M.2 SSD, and 8gb ram into the board. I connected the CPU fan and the two 4 pin molex, and the 8 pin (atx12v1). I could not get anything to turn on and found that i have to have the SATA power plugged in. So i connected the SATA plug and when i turned everything on i noticed one of the components (Q16), between the 24 pin motherboard connector and the reset button, went up in smoke.
I was testing everything without the PCEi plugged in to verify i had power.
Question 1) Did i do something wrong?
Question 2) where can i send this to get repaired
Question 2) What can i do to prevent this?
