As title says, but a bit of background.

Few days ago we had a power cut which fried the PSU. Bought another PSU the next day and it booted fine. Great, until it wasn't. PC kept freezing/ shutting down as windows booted. I managed to boot my Windows USB for a fresh install and that went well. Installed all drivers and windows updates except for GPU. Every time I try to install, it cuts out and dies. Device manager recognises it's a 2070. I've tested all other components including a CPU stress test and it doesn't fault (stays a cool 80c after 20 mins of stress) 5900x for reference. My GPU is the last bit of my rig I haven't upgraded so I won't be too sad if it's just GPU. Any thoughts would

As the title says, PSU died off a few days ago after a power surge at home. Wouldn't turn on at all. Replaced the PSU and it now boots, however it won't go past the bios screen. It allowed me to reinstall windows (figured why not, it's overdue and maybe a data corruption). All is well until the point it actually boots the OS. Got to the final stages of the install where it says "Getting things ready" then just a black screen. CPU isn't overheating. All fans spinning within normal range. CPU pump is operating as normal. Other than potentially 'nearly' dead GPU, I'm at a loss.

I'm gifting this to my boy on Christmas as I don't play anymore. I've got a day or 2 to fix. Any help is beyond appr

Hi guys

Sorry if this is not allowed, I read the rules and seemed okay. Not sure who else to ask, to be honest.

I'm buying a BMW M235i, however, I'm concerned it's been clocked (someone has reduced the mileage on the dash).

Red flags:

. 4 owners, only 16,950 miles . Somewhat worn interior . Screws above the dash have been removed and put back in. These are what gives access to the entirety of the dash module - clocking takes place here.

Green flags:

. The dealer is happy for me to take it to BMW and have it checked over for wear. They should be able to say what's acceptable for a car with 17k miles. Offered a full refund if there's evidence of clocking (this incures charges on my par

Hear ye, brothers and sisters. 5 Seasons ago, I suffered a severe injury to my AC joint after colliding into a metal carriage on my horse of steel. The injury has left me a shell of the man I once was, and I crave the gains that have left me. I am a mere pudding of a man - squidgy and delightful - as stated by my maiden, but neigh, tis not the form I was destined for.

My injury limits my left arm's movement; Lateral raises, presses and dips are forbidden as the tension is too much. I ask thee, brothers and sisters, has anyone suffered a similar injury but managed to overcome it? I pray for your guidance, for it has been too long since I attended temple. I fear Brodin has abandoned me.

Before Mia came into my life, I didn't exactly like dogs - My girlfriend had to convince the hell out of me to get her. I never believed "a dog is a man's best friend" until Mia came along. I can't put into words how much Mia meant to me, as I feel no words would come close. She was the most loving, beautiful creature to bless this world, and to see her leave has been heart breaking. I'm sure you all have dogs, so take an extra second to love them, as you are the most important thing in their world. Your happiness is their happiness, your grief is their grief. They will love you unconditionally till the very end.

Edit: Thank you all for the kind words. We're think
