Everything's coming up explodey!

Welp, I didn't touch it, but apparently the magic that got my computer running dried up, the thing shut down during a game of Overwatch and won't boot back up. Tried reseating stuff, no joy. I'm guessing it's a bad power supply, the lights on the motherboard turn on, but the power buttons (case and mobo) do nothing except the occasional click. Gonna take it back to the repair shop and see if it fixes itself again, and if not, they can test the parts to see if I need to RMA anything. :suicide: That said, it's a goddamn monster when it wants to run!

Update, appears to be the mobo. Upside, I'm still within Amazon's one month return period, so a replacement is already shipping out.
