The problem with the Dell's you are refering to was caused by a shipment of bad capacitors. This issue only affected the gx260/280 models. We had a large number of these, and just about every one was replaced.

To check if this is your problem, look at the capacitors between the CPU and the back end of the motherboard. If any appear to be bulging on top, then they are bad.

I make a pretty good living swapping out caps on boards!! It affects many other boards too. In fact this machine I'm posting from is an old HP that had bad caps that I fixed and stuck linux on
