Hi all, Running into some issues that I suspect are related to a dead board, but I wanted to see if there's anyone with some words of wisdom first! So here's what's going on: In a nutshell, it's exactly the same symptoms as not pressing the power button. The board's rainbow LED junk is glowing...

After having to put up with mostly every drive in my system performing incredibly slowly, I decided to check the SMART data for my drives, and according to HD Tune Pro, my SSD is having some serious sector issues. Some other programs, like Samsung Magician and Speccy, show that the drive is...
