Not the first time tape has brought down a plane. And unfortunately probably not the last.

My biggest problem with low number of expensive fighters is this kind of attrition. I know it’s an accident but a piece of tape brought down what is hailed as the best fighter aircraft in existence. And the number of these marvels is now less with no replacements.

My vote is for power supply.  What size/type is yours now?

Swapped out a Corsair 750MX with a Corsair 750 RX......don't ask me, I don't have a clue. The old one was semi moduler and the replacement was fully, totally moduler man!!    I used up another whole can (no doubt contributing to the greenhouse gases already up there) of dust off blowing out any stubborn dust bunnies while I was in there. Cleaned the water cooler radiator and fans, the memory sticks and the dust filter on the bottom for the PSU cooling fan. I put it all back together, started her up and nothing blew up or caught fire so I might have done something right for a change. we'll see.

While you are in there make sure everything is still plugged in right.  I've had problems with RAM, GPU and M.2 components not seated correctly, so bad that my computer wouldn't even boot into the bios.
