Dell U2410f flickering

I bought a Dell Ultrasharp U2410 from a sketchy 3rd party seller on Amazon 11 months ago. It recently started shutting off and then back on when it gets warm. If I'm playing video on it, it happens faster. If I keep it on, it starts to flicker very fast. The serial number has been removed (didn't notice when I got it) and the seller says most of the items they sell don't have serial numbers. Like I said, sketchy. Because of that, Dell won't touch it. I found a capacitor repair kit here:

But when I took the monitor apart, the capacitors seem ok.

There doesn't seem to be an eBay market for parts, and I wouldn't know where to start, so I guess I'll be recycling it if nobody here has ideas.
