I would contact Gigabyte and see if they can send you a replacement fan. Not having to send the entire board to them would cut their cost too, so I think they would be quite receptive of the idea. 

Efficient has multiple meanings.

If one wants to write something original and fast in python, one actually writes C++...

Python is great for developer efficiency, but at great cost. How often do you actually see python in deployment? Most often, it's used to quickly explore ideas which, if useful, are then recreated in a more robust manner on a different platform. Another really common industry use is as a user scripting language, which again, amounts to the developer writing code in another language (take Blenders python scripting engine, for example). The third common use is for one-off data exploration when developing ideas.

C# is amazingly efficient in both development time (once the developer learns the FCL), and in performance (it can actually be quite fast for most tasks if the developer is able to put in the required effort), especially compared to python. And, it is actually robust enough that there are many, many deployed applications and websites that use it.
 
 
This is a very old argument. And I'll admit it used to be a really good argument.

However, that's not necessarily the case anymore, and as time goes on will become less and less the case. According to GitHubs 2019 surveys, .NET Core is the fifth fastest growing platform, actually beating pythons growth rate. In fact, Microsoft actually recommends that library writers target .NET Standard (which will allow interaction with all "versions" of .NET), and that application developers target .NET Core if at all possible. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/about
 
Heck, the most common use case for C# doesn't even run on Windows anymore: Most companies using it for web backends, which is C#'s most common use case, are running it on AWS Lambdas, Dockers, or Linux based server architectures.

Yes, thank you. I forgot to mention. BTW the bios from factory was very broken and barely usable ?

The CPU won't bottleneck the GPU.

The Aorus Elite or Pro and the Asus TUF are good boards for around 200$.
 
For the PSU the Corsair RMx or TXm 550w are around 100$ and will deliver enough wattage, you can get the 650w if you want more room for like 10$ more which will still be a better price for the same quality as the Seasonic.
 
Also if it's overkill for your daily usage you could take the 3700x to save 150$~.
Same for the SSD, a MP34 will be a little slower but for around 110$ it's worth considering.

I would say upgrading your CPU and RAM might be the best option depending on your usage.
B350 is still supported by RYZEN 3000.

Hello,
 
The motherboard is a little overkill as is the PSU wattage otherwise it's a great build.
 
More fan is always a plus so I say yes (Noctua).

I personally never liked the sound signature of schiit.
Pricey, but I picked an RME ADI-2 DAC. It sounds magnificient with my hd600
 

Never MSI.
I've had nothing but issues with their motherboards.
Their BIOS screens also tend to be a little behind everyone else's.

Update: OCCT did bugger all. Also, I took my GPU apart for the sake of satisfying my curiosity, and it turns out that one of the R33 voltage regulators is completely blackened. I could possibly replace it, but I don't mind buying a new GPU to be honest. Besides, who knows that damage that blown regularor has done to the card, and what caused that part to blow in the first place. 
 
So I guess I'll have to decide if I gamble on not buying a new PSU to save the money. Essentially, I'm wagering the cost of my new GPU (~€500) to save maybe €100. I think I'll just play it safe guys.. Thanks for all the help! A new PSU and GPU it is! Who needs to eat anyway?  

I don't know if there are good ways except with good lab electronic gear.
A basic visual inspection of the internal component is a first step but opening a PSU is also something dangerous (high current shocks).

The Wii U was one of the sad failures. Great console, meh library (except for the really good titles), terrible marketing.
The Switch is what I wanted the Wii U to be, mainly the handheld portion. The Wii U was a playing ground for some more 'weird' games like Splatoon, Super Mario Maker (not that weird of a game) and a decent hosting ground for some remakes.. But it was very clear throughout its life Nintendo didn't care much for it.
 
Wii Sports being a bundled game probably was a blessing and a curse. It was a system-seller and quite fun, but at the same time made it so most Wii owners only purchased 2 or 3 games at most for the system. (those probably being Just Dance or shovelware). It made the Wii kind of a laughing stock of the industry at the time..

I'd personally replace the PSU. Even if you trust a specific model, shit can happen. No forum member can guarantee you the state of your PSU.
 
Personal again, I just had bad experience with Corsair PSUs (RMx 750 and dont remember the other one). I was into seasonic but with good reviews and forum feedbacks I gave Corsair two chances... which failed. So I'm back to Seasonic with no regret (12 years total using and recommending them on a lot of computers for my, family and friends).
 
Good luck!
Writing from my PC that run almost 24/24 7/7 with its good old Seasonic SS-560KM (i5-3570K + GTX 1080)
Edit: I should probably check my PSU and its capacitors now that I think about it..

well, they're on the old side, it's possible that it's just expired

I would recommend a "will-driven" approach to get started.  Come up with something you want to make that you're really passionate about.  Be reasonable, don't go for a AAA game right off the bat - make it something simple like tic-tac-toe.  Start by looking up the most basic program in your language of choice ("hello world"), and some of the syntax for basic structures like output, if, for, etc.  Then simply look up additional things as needed as you expand the project and make it more complex.  Your needs will guide you to the necessary information.
 
After you've done this with several programs and are comfortable with the basics, that's when I'd recommend starting to read some documentation and more advanced theory to fill out your knowledge and make sure there are no gaps, as well as expand into more complex topics.  I'd recommend not starting with this though because you won't be motivated and you won't have any context for how things actually work, what's important at this stage, etc.

Please let us know as soon as you can about the "secret sauce". I have the same Caldit Thunderbolt 3 dock and am limited to 2m. Can't wait to see the longer solution. 

Nice coax net you got there ?
Sorry in advance

At the end I think I will get the R6 or Define C as I feel it's safe
I guess I will just open the front-door of the R6 when gaming to get even more airflow.
 
Thank you for the help!
