My PC has been diagnosed as completely dead.
A B650 motherboard, Ryzen 9 7800X, and 4 sticks of DDR5 32GB RAM completely dead.
The folks at West Edmonton MemEx were super helpful, and I'm glad we still have this local resource.
Now comes the slog of fighting RMAs...
Thankfully I have a M2 Mac mini I can sub in but I'm pinning that chip just watching a YouTube video and doing work on a second screen.

@chad@mstdn.ca Oof. Was this all from lightning power surges last week, or was there water damage or something else? And yeah, glad we still have a in-person shop where they can do the part by part testing. Unfortunate that they couldn't confirm any of it usable. Best of luck with the warranty process.
