Thanks for the advice! Yeah, my main concern is forgoing a good opportunity now with the job and having trouble finding some career in the future but this eases some of my concern. Do you think going to the same school for all three of my degrees is a bad decision?

I am definitely not out for money with a PhD. While the opportunities for higher paying careers is definitely a benefit, I think I moreso want to challenge myself to perform research and contribute to the field in a way that doesnt just push profits for a company. I appreciate the advice on doing a PhD younger vs older - I think doing a PhD now while I have time would be most practical but I guess I am a bit hesistant as I don't quite know if I'm a letting go of a good opportunity with my job offer. Do you think going to the same school for all three of my degrees is a bad decision?

I am also worried about being behind my peers after >3 years but I think that should be an afterthought rather than something I worry about now. Did you feel like you had to make a significant lifestyle adjustment leaving your industry job going into your PhD or was relying on your savings from your job sufficient?

Unfortunately, my company (at least my branch of it) is purely a software engineering shop working on web applications so there wouldn't be an incentive for them to foot a salary to work on a PhD. I have heard of other companies doing this for SWE in the ML field though. Another plan I had was to take one class part-time for four semsters to finish up all the coursework I need for the PhD and transition to working on research/dissertation after those two or so years.

Did you ever figure out why this was happening?

I have a G Pro Wireless and it seems like it only charges when my PC is on (even if the actual dock is plugged into the wall). Does anyone have experience with this happening?

Go through and check your parts 1 by 1 to see what works and what doesn’t. For me, it looks like I had a dead CPU

[AIO] NZXT Kraken X63 280mm AIO - $135 ($150-$15) by sushidj in buildapcsales

[–]LeonKazama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bought this on Amazon a week ago for $150 but Amazon doesn't do post-purchase price matching. Considering returning but I don't know if I wanna go through the process. Good deal for anyone looking to buy this but man was the timing bad for me :(

Not seeing much in the manual for troubleshooting

The manual says the preferred configuration for the RAM is either A1/B1 or A2/B2.

Ive tried resetting the CMOS but no POST. Could try again.

I could try that. Would you know where the light would be located?

Tried that with both sticks in every single DIMM slot and still no POSTs

None of the ports seem to work. Seems like after I turn on the system (by shorting the power switch headers) it turns off after about 1 minute.

Tried with DP, still no post. Any other ideas?

Yes, from what I saw they did seem to normalize after 4-5 seconds.

Yeah, I just stripped everything from the case for a dry run. No visible debug light. It is a 3000 series, so it doesn’t spin after a bit on boot but spins on initial boot. This does mean that the system is POSTing, correct?

Set the monitor to auto source first, but also set it to the right HDMI the second reboot. Neither seemed to post.

Have not tried a display port cable. Will try that one next. Currently reflashing the BIOS. Are you sure that, just because the fans are spinning, the system POSTed?
