[IN TICKET] Piece of mainboard partially melted

Unfortunately another one bites the dust. Check the underside of your boards as well guys!

Charged only with the FW adapter and once briefly with an Apple 61W USB-C PD adapter (pictured) which wouldn’t charge the system for some reason.

No external GPU but I was stress testing the system.

The one on the underside of the board was cooking my RAM a fair bit, it burnt my finger touching a module when I was trying to figure out the heat source.
