I have an LC, both logic board and PSU re-capped, with a strange issue. The logic board appears to build up some sort of weird charge over time. It causes video interference over time and today caused the computer to short out while starting up. I unplugged the PSU from the board, re-inserted it, and it's fine now. It probably will have the video problem again a week from now. Any thoughts on what could be causing this? Monitor is not the issue; it has been tried on another LC with no problems.
History of the board: before it got re-capped, the board had a video issue. It was related to caps. The board was re-capped in 2016 and worked flawlessly until the video interference issue showed up about 9 months ago.
I have a few extra boards to try tonight to rule out the PSU.
