gollark: My device is still warrantied but not having a laptop for ages while it gets repaired would be very inconvenient, so does anyone know how long this sort of thing generally takes to get fixed (or if there is a simple repair I can do, but I doubt it)?
gollark: I have begun hearing a periodic buzzing-ish noise when heavy GPU loads occur, since hearing a "pop" noise earlier today. I figure this is a failure of the GPU power supply somehow.
