    You don't go to sponsors. Sponsors come to you.

    A 500W PSU is the minimum recommended PSU for the GTX970. I think you're pushing that Corsair too hard and it's not able to power the system under load. Do you have a 650 or 700W you could throw in to test?

    thats probably why. The board is probably touching the case, which causes it to short out which can shut it down and I believe turn it on and possibly make it blue screen. Have him make sure he somehow installs all the standoffs in the correct spots, and if the issues stop thats probably why.

    It started randomly out of nowhere? The only instance I can think of that happening is if something shorted the motherboard, or someone has remote access to the PC. I'm sure there are more ways but they don't come to mind. What PSU does he have? If possible, can you tell the specific PSU?

    What nvidia driver version are you currently on? There has been a huge problem with 417.22 and laptop GPU's (specifically Pascal) locking the clock speeds very low and crippling performance. Given the low clocks and utilization, there is less heat and no throttling which confuses a lot of people. If you find this is the case while gaming and you're on 417.22, try rolling back your driver. At least on the Acer boards, almost everyone rolling back to 417.01 has had success.

    I've used this mouse for months and it's great. Chines brand, but there are drivers available and you can control light functions, DPI, etc etc. Get two or three?

    Tobimaru got a reaction from Airdragonz in Refurbished 1080 Ti - Poor performance   
    I think this is your issue. Try an earlier release driver. I am not an expert on this card, so you might search which drivers other users have success with right now. There is a huge problem (at least with Acer laptops) with the current 417.22 release and absolutely dismal performance on mobile cards. Rolling back fixes everything in this case.
