So my OEM computer suddenly died a few weeks back

I decided to check if the motherboard was still working, I figured it was because what had happened was that the computer suddenly shut off and wouldn't turn back on. So I just got around to plugging it into another power supply and the motherboard started letting off "beautiful" smoke and melting the box below it.

 

I love electronics. I still don't know what happened besides the fact that there's a charred chip under the mobo.
