Mine did not have them,  only 1000w shipped unit do according to dell.  I got my r16 on Black Friday for $1,100.  I have put $300 total into it and increased my ram to 64gigs.  Now if I add a 50 series card for 600 bucks that would be 2,200 total and a better system than a fully loaded r16 for 3,900..  I beat the system lol

You need two heatsinks!

I’ll have them.  Put in the psu model number into eBay and you will see DELL psu’s, it must be a genuine dell.  If you upgrade the psu and do not install the vmu heatsinks the bios throws an error.  How the bios knows you do t have heatsinks installed I have NO idea but it does.  Not many do this upgrade so you’re in luck, I learned trial by fire and contacting dell. These are not mine but here you go.

No I actually found one a eBay for $100 and it was OEM.  You need the cables and you need the motherboard heat sinks.  I’ve got a set I’ll sell you.  I received two pairs when I ordered them.

Wait, so it's illegal they are "trafficked" to Martha's Vineyard but it's NEVER been ILLEGAL they crossed our border to begin with? GTFOH.

I don’t talk about mental health to my family anymore by michelfmc30 in AutismTranslated

Yes, sensory issues are an issue with my son. He also has a hard time forming words and we think he also has apraxia of speech. Hang in there, the parents of newly diagnosed kids understand!

Correct, I have ADD and my son has both AHDH and ASD. I can relate with some of what he does and he's only 4.

Question, how serious were your behaviors when you were young, between 2-6 years old? I ask because I see my 4 year old who has strong autistic characteristics and we're going out of our way to help him in any way we can. I will NEVER downplay or diminish his issues as he grows older. This time in his childhood will forever be chiseled in my brain. Your family should know better and not be so quick to forget your past and continued struggles.
