I'm near the edge of my patience here. My PC functioned properly until I rearranged it during a room renovation. On the day I moved it, it stopped working completely—only fans spinning and RGB LEDs flickering between CPU, RAM, and VGA before shutting down entirely. After a reset and BIOS reconfiguration, it booted again without issues. Recently, after dismantling it three times, resetting the BIOS, unplugging and replugging every cable, I noticed the same behavior. I’ve tried everything—plugging in different RAM modules, checking connections, even going to a hardware store—but nothing works. Now, a few weeks later, it’s back to the same problem. I’m considering giving it another shot, hoping it will fix itself automatically.

It might be the PSU, but I don't believe it's the case since it's a very good one. If you manage to obtain another PSU and compare, it could help determine if the original was the issue.

I also experimented with switching, but since the other version isn't modular, it doesn't work completely. It boots up briefly before shutting down again.

My CPU cooler seems to be slightly dislodged.

It's a great CPU SilentiumPC FERA 3 RGB HE1224 but it's still working well.
