Um...about how long does it take to burn up a CPU if its got no cooling on it? Reason i ask is I had a 2100+ (please note "had" ) and just finished water cooling it. Seems I didn't have the waterblock on it securely enough though because the screw from the mobo waterblock was holding it slightly up off the CPU. It never was on for more than about 15-10 seconds while I was testing it out but now I can't get the computer to show anything on the monitor. Its not the vid card, I tested it in another machine. But if I take the CPU block off I can smell something like its burning! Did I burn it up?
