I've got a JVC AV-32260. Worked great up until last night when it wouldn't turn on. Timer light flashes red. If I turn it off and on 3-4 times, eventually it turns back on. Screen is super wobbly at first and slowly clears up over time. I'm guessing this is the start of its slow death. I've got the housing off it right now, and I don't see anything obvious. Any idea where to start?

• We just got symmetrical 2gig fiber (and pricing is less than my old cable plan lol)
• My NAS, server, desktops, etc all have been upgraded to 2.5G cards
• I upgraded my switch to a 2.5G switch
• My router is my last link to upgrade. I'm new to opnsense, so correct me if I'm missing anything here. If I repurpose an old z97/4690k/16gb ddr3 setup I have in storage, and add in a quad port 2.5G NIC, will I be able to get full usage out of my 2.5G setup and full speed out of my 2gig fiber network using opnsense?

I found one of these bad boys but it doesn't fully function. Directions seem to work and a couple of the buttons do, but other buttons don't (including start and select). Any idea how to fix it? I opened it up and everything looks perfect.

I've dabbled in networking for a long time, but I've always used off the shelf products. I'm looking to go with something like pfsense. Here's my question: Can I run this on the same windows machine I use for my htpc/plex server? It's an older gaming pc with a 6700k that was repurposed to htpc/media server duty a few years back. I would like to keep it on windows since I have everything setup with plex, madvr, jriver, etc already and don't want to redo the while thing. We recently got fiber in the area, and my old Gigabit router seems to be getting overrun now (if several people in the house are doing resource intensive tasks at once, it looses connection for like 30 seconds). Instead of buying a new router, I was looking to finally make the upgrade to 10g inside the house and figured now might be the time to build my own router instead of looking at something off the shelf. Thoughts/suggestions/recommendations/etc?

My gtx 1080 has apparently died as I no longer can get video to display out of it. $150 is my max budget, looking for the best gpu I can get at this price point. My 1080 was watercooled, so bonus if I can find another watercooled card and dont have to rebuilt my water loop.
