    GPU component level diagnosis and repair service?

    Hey guys, I've got a 1080ti that's on the fritz, and while I haven't finished testing every scenario I can think of, I'm beginning to suspect its an issue with some smd, cap, or potentially a vram chip. It works intermittently, but every time I've removed the card, put it back in the system...

    Recommendations for two SSDs (system and games separately)

    Best Coffee Lake MB, recommendation?

    What do you guys think is the current best option for the 300 series MBs? Looking for something higher end, that'll give me the best performance for an OC'd i5-8600k, that'll be SLI 1080ti's.
