  • With those symptoms (dying under load and takes an hour to turn back on) I would put it at a 90% chance this is a thermal issue with the video card. Have you made sure the GPU fans spin when under load? If they aren't spinning that's going to be your problem. If they are, how dirty is the heat sink and has that ever been cleaned? If you have pets and live in a place with carpet or a smoker you will get buildup in the heat sink that can kill airflow. With this card only being ~4 years old at most, I wouldn't expect the thermal paste to be an issue but it wouldn't hurt to replace it.

  • Some things I would double-check:

    • Make sure only the correct mb standoffs are installed and all of the correct standoffs are installed and used. Looks like there is an unused mount in one of your pictures.
    • Make sure all power connections on the mb are made (there are more than just the 24 pin).
    • If using a modular power supply, make sure you have the wires plugged into the correct plugs on the ps. Pcie cables might fit into the mb aux or SATA connector plugs.
    • Final step is taking everything out and installing the minimum viable components. So one stick ram, no expansion cards, only boot drive, etc.
  • You're not wrong but after having this exact breakfast at HIE and Hampton Inn about 50+ times, it's crap. Bland and repetitive and usually cold but somehow over cooked or the most undercooked eggs/bacon. My company always strongly recommends booking a room with breakfast included, but f that I'll go find a $10 diner and have real bacon.

    1. Remove all the contents and drawers from the vanity.
    2. Turn off/disconnect the plumbing.
    3. Look inside for any screws that would go into the walls and remove those. Specifically around the top, base, and sides of the vanity. You might find how the sink top is attached to the base as well, splitting those will make it lighter but maybe not easier. 100% depends on the assembly.
    4. Cut the caulk between the wall and vanity top. Probably goes all the way around and maybe under the lip.
    5. Lift up on the corner of the top/vanity. Everything should lift up and start breaking away from the wall. It should lift with some weight but you shouldn't have to really leverage on it to move it. If it still feels attached, look for more screws.
    6. Have fun replacing it.
