Might be of interest for some on here - Asus recalls product after users 'smell smoke'
Asus has been forced to issue a product recall after reports from some users that its motherboards were melting.

Reports emerged on social media that a number of affected Z690 Hero motherboards made by the computer company were burning and producing smoke after normal use.

Asus acknowledged the fault and said it could "potentially affect" specific units manufactured in 2021.

The Z690 Hero is a high-end motherboard for use within powerful gaming laptops.

It's a joint venture by Kawasaki and KTM, poor finish and awful styling.
