      Normally higher amps shouldn't be a problem except there already exists a problem at the pcb...

      I think v1_2 vs. v1_3 pcb version...

          Like no spam said higher AMP's should not of been the problem. If your soldering skills are good it may be fixable if we can find out what chip it is you have fried that's why I checked my pcb.
          Can you read whats on the fried chip

          Yes my PCB is v1_2

            That looks like Winbond UEFI chip.

                If there are no markings, it cannot be the UEFI chip. I cannot find any other picture that shows this version of the board.

                  Can you please post a picture of the power supply you used?

                  It would be nice to know its exact specifications to avoid using such a device.

                  A close and clear picture of the label is definitely needed, but other pictures are also welcome.

                        12V? Voltage should be 5V! It will be destroyed complete

                        Edit: Oooh sorry, correctly is 12V!

                          Hi ... i have the feeling that the output is AC and not DC ! , but i could be wrong in absence of specs.
                          Sorry for your bad experience.
                          I have only had problems with the DC power plus size ... nothing serious.

                            Well i am using a 12VDC adapter and it works ok.
                            An advice ... stick with the DC adapter provided with the unit.
                            With the kindest regards, geppo

                              The Pipo x7 is 12v not 5v
