The PSU trip suggests a short circuit on the card. That means a catastrophic failure has occurred.
No kidding !!!!! ;) As said I heard the pop....I was actually looking right at the Mobo and my system when it happened as whenever I have issues I always watch the "post codes" on my Motherboard, was actually watching to see if I got hung up on another "97 post code".....obviously when you hear a "pop" from your hw its not good :)
The Corsair AX1600i has an led on it that is lit green when all good, it immediately went red at the same time the GPU "popped" ....pretty obvious.
I knew it hadnt taken out any hw as was able to reboot and check system using iGPU....
The only thing I dont like with this new Maximus Z690 Apex board for my next build is no iGPU input.
