Here's my reply from support:
The F1VR LED is in relation to power which is why I asked if you had tested with another PSU. What it sounds to me is that one of the power phases had finally failed.

They indicated that overlcocking could cause this, but I don't overclock anything but the RAM (to the vendor's specifications). I think it's just age. This has been a great board; sad to see it go. Currently looking at options and it's just insane to buy another X99 board at this point.
As for where on the motherboard:
there are a series of 5 LEDs on near the expansion card slots and F1VR is the first one. There's nearly no documentation on it, but I did find once and it has something to do with power regulation, but I can't find that document now for the full description.
I did test the PSU on another board, but I haven't tested another PSU in this system; it's too much of a hassle to pull out of the other system.
I have done the do diligance of reset the CMOS, power up with one stick, reset all the power connects, cards, etc. Only thing left is to pull the MB out or try with another PSU, but the fact that this one works on another system, I am pretty confident it isn't the PSU.
I do still have an X58 board running (yeah, 12 years old and still runs great); EVGA does make great hardware.
Let's all have a moment of silence for the X99 board... :)
