    all sata port dead...

    Update: I let the board sit for some days without battery. Did the reboot procedures as suggested... and sata controller is back. All working again. Except for the 2 week old SSD, that's toast. Sent it back, got my refund. Can a bad SSD temporarily disable sata controllers ? Well anyways...

    Would 350w PSU do it?

    Video card only requires a 6 pin connector, wondering why since it's supposed to be a 70w card only, I guess the 2 fans need it.

    The GPU block that wouldn't die

    I have the same gpu cooler together with an apogee for my cpu. Sitting unused in a box for almost 10 years now. Together with the other parts. Was thinking about using them again, just not sure if they are still trust worthy cause of the rubber gaskets.
