Macrium Reflect has a free version for cloning drives that works well. Once you clone it, shut down the computer, swap the drives around so the new one is the only one installed and it should boot right up.

Out of everything you listed there, the answer is hands down EVGA. Just my opinion. They are known for producing excellent performing cards, and better yet, excellent customer service, and an excellent warranty. 

I would definitely stop turning on the PC and keep it unplugged.
 
PSU is the most likely, but could be anything. Might want to take it to a repair shop if you aren't sure.

3 intake in front and one rear exhaust is totally fine.

cool deal!
 
It's a strange beast because it straddles so many topics from hardware, software, networking, human behaviour, and current events. Guess it can be discussed anywhere when the discussion warrants it.
 

You should be able to without running into issues. If it misbehaves you can always disable the integrated graphics so the dedicated GPU is the only one active.

I agree with the above - that doesn't look like a dead pixel. Also, sounds like you handled the monitor normally, so I'm doubting you caused any damage to the screen.
 
EDIT: Reminds me more of dust inside the panel assembly given it's larger size and soft edges.

Bad luck. Hopefully the RMA process is smooth and quick.

RMA. If it's happening in the BIOS too it's not a software issue.

If it was bought under a contract it may automatically be unlocked once the contract term is up and the device is payed off. Typically two years.
 
If it's not under contract you need to contact Verizon.

Is your router 6E certified? Are you in the same room as the router when gaming and getting lag? 6E allows use of the 6 GHz spectrum, which offers a theoretical increase in throughput, speed, and bandwidth. It is also more susceptible to interference from walls, appliances, etc.
 
If the router is only Wifi 6 then the card that came with the laptop is more than enough.

Yea I wouldn't be surprised if this replacement battery is missing controllers the OEM battery would've had to report various parameters on the condition of the battery back to the laptop. 
 
Who is this reputable third party battery manufacturer? Why not just provide their name if they're reputable? 

Standard - Fully charges the battery at a moderate rate. This setting provides a balanced approach to extending battery life while still providing a reasonably fast charging time. Recommended for users who frequently switch between battery and external power sources. ExpressCharge™ - Quickly charges the battery using Dell's fast-charge technology. Recommended for users who need the battery to charge quickly. If the system is powered off, then the battery typically charges to 80 percent within one hour and 100 percent in two hours. Charge time may be longer if the system is powered on. Primarily AC Use - Extends battery life by lowering the charge threshold, so that the battery never charges to 100 percent capacity. Recommended for users who primarily operate the system while plugged into an external power source. Adaptive - Automatically optimizes battery settings based on the user's typical patterns. Recommended for users who want to set and forget. Custom - User selects when the battery starts and stops charging. Recommended for advanced users.

@Kee Yong, Tinghave you installed Dell Power Manager or Dell Command | Power Manager to see if those options are listed there? 

Detecting a non-OEM battery is pretty straightforward, so no tricks. If they can't verify the batter specs and integrity (because third party) then disabling some power options can make sense.

They are both 24" 1080p IPS with FreeSync. Only difference is refresh rate.
 
144 Hz is "better" only if the higher refresh rate matters to you.

Also, annoying ads were a thing before AdBlock. 
Anyone remember the "SAY SOMETHING!" and "WHAT?!" emoji ads? They auto played sounds whenever you hovered over them. Pop-ups were also a thing before adblocking. 

I don't believe that in the slightest, especially since the current level of ads has been established as "normal". Why would they reduce them? If people do disable ad blockers then it's just that much more ad revenue for them. Profit is a pretty strong motivating factor.

no idea if this is the correct way of calculating this but oh well: 3x140mm = 420mm, 4x120mm = 480mm so you are getting more fan mm with 120mm fans. Also I believe 140mm fans can spin slower to achieve the same amount of airflow so they are quieter.  

Just tried with my 3080 Ti and it returns [N/A] for the serial number.

My Gigabyte Z690 Gaming x (DDR5 model) is compatible with DDR5 up to 5200mhz
also 4800mhz is the slowest DDR5 speed available
