sparks?? really?

OMG...

one would expect Sapphire to recall all affected cards.. but no statement on their website or anything..

Yup sparked when I hit the power on it, I feel like it may be that the card had the voltage turned up on it (1.256) but I never overvolted it at all and can't change it unless i flash the bios, I tried to turn it down but it wouldn't change values.  I'm worried about the rest of the cards but I am getting a new power supply and it is a platinum corsair so it shouldn't be a problem.  If it sparks or dies i know it would definitely be the defective cards and I would have to do another RMA.
