This seems bizarre considering Starcraft 2 is not exactly the most taxing game on the GFX front but it seems it may be causing some PCs or laptops to overheat damaging the motherboard as the computer will try and render an infinite number of framerates.

Here is a fix

For a temporary workaround, go to your Documents/StarCraft II/Variables.txt and set frameratecapglue to 30 and frameratecap to 60.

Add these lines to Variable.txt:
frameratecapglue=30
frameratecap=60

Only 10 years in development and they didnt catch a bug that could cause youre PC to explode
