cpu smoking

[coolkid]

Hey i am having problems with my computer system. I was moving my computer to a new case and adding a new dvd player to replace a defective one i had this serous problem. I had a q660 processor in the pc and a aftermarket cooler. When it was moved to the new case and started a lot of smoke come out of the system, after this i cleaned it off and it smoked again.  I have even tried putting it into the old case.

I then ordered a new processor and aftermarket cooler, same problem. both processors have thermal sensors on them so this makes he wonder if the moboard if defective? please tell what i can do. Thanks

Are you sure the CPU is what smoked?

Is there a burn mark or blister on the cpu itself etc. 90% of the time its the motherboard that smokes and its because the board is grounding shorting out on a component leg to case ground. If your lucky you might just need to replace the motherboard if the motherboard was the cause of the smoke.

Next step means verifying what really smoked and try to figure out why before spending more $$$ of the system.

could be the motherboard, check for any broke capitors

well there was scorch marks on the old processor so i figured it was shot or that the thermal sensor felled but new one appeared to smoke as-well.  It could of been the socket possible but im not shure sense there was so much smoke. Is there any fix to the motherboard or is it ruined?

EDIT: Is there anyway to figure out what exactly is smoking without creating further damage to the parts.

You're wasting good money and letting that board fry perfectly good CPU's...

And the newest cpu isn't even old enough to smoke!

If all you did was move everything to a new case, you must have done something wrong.
The damage has already been done to both cpu's and the motherboard. 
Do you really want to set the entire computer on fire and then the house on fire?

DaveLembke you were right the processor was not burned at all, after investigation there is a bubble of black plastic that appears burned under a small black heat heat sink right next to the motherboard.  This is the source of the smoke.  where would i go from here. Is the motherboard ruined or can it cheaply be repaired.

If I can get a pic would you guys want to see one?

1.  Replace motherboard.  Hope it's still under warranty.
2.  Sure.
