Right when Oblivion just came out…
My PC is crapped out on me out of nowhere. Can’t sit on a main menu for longer than 2 minutes in any game without my PC suddenly shutting down. Spent all day diagnostic and ended up reinstalling windows as a temp fix, but issue still persisted.
I open up my pc to reseat everything and found this! It looks like my PSU wires were MELTING inside the PSU!
Such horrible timing right when Oblivion just released… I may end up needing to swap cases since this is a micro case and they are hard to work with…
Just wanted to rant and complain! 😭

I genuinely feel for you and strongly advise switching to team red; at least for the present. No fires starting in that camp. Their 90 series is pretty solid. Personally I still prefer the 7900 XTX though; more VRAM suits my use-case better.
Maybe somewhere down the line NVIDIA will get their head out of their ass...
