Your PC is acting odd. Could be a hardware issue or software problem.

Ensure you have backup options like a line conditioner or an uninterruptible power supply. These can safeguard your computer from harm due to brownouts or power spikes.
Update quickly: I was gaming Valheim when the screen went dark, everyone got excited and the PC stayed on. I unplugged it, waited a moment, then reconnected. The M.2 card's light flashed but the PC didn’t turn on. While I waited for my new power supply, I called their support and tomorrow morning I’ll go to a service that works with them to check what’s wrong and replace the faulty parts. Honestly, it’s a setback, but I’m still covered under warranty. Do you think my GPU failed too (the PSU is probably bad)? From what I saw, the PC was still getting power but no display output.
Another quick update : Turns out my PSU is still fine. It's the GPU that died...the guy from the service swapped PSUs and GPUs around, my PSU powered up with another GPU he had around. As I said in previous posts, I'm still covered by warranty and talked to them, shipped the GPU yesterday. Another important thing to add is that it turns out that GPU is from some weird brand called " manli " (judging from the sticker it has on the cooler, which is a turbine type of a cooler, more cooling efficient but noisy as hell, with no backplate at all), so it's most likely some chinese brand that was probably ordered by my company as a "bulk". The reason I say this is that the guy from the PC service I went to told me with exact details how PC builders/retailers sell PCs with these kind of cheaper and lower quality components. He's been building/selling PCs himself for over 15 years so I'm guessing he knows what he's talking about. The sad part is that I was kind of aware of how prebuilts are done, but I didn't have the time to look for components and build it myself. He was kind enough to borrow me a graphics card so that I can at least use my PC (this CPU doesn't have onboard graphics and I don't mind it, since I bought that PC for mostly the gaming part which means I'm more interested in a dedicated graphics card which in turn means I don't have to spend extra money on stuff I don't really need, like onboard graphics). Another catch is that the warranty certificate specifies that if they can repair the GPU, they'll send it repaired, otherwise they'll send me a new one. Sadly, I don't want another GPU from the same producer or even a repaired one (this " manli " offbrand c*ap). Currently waiting for them to see what's up with the GPU and come up with a solution. If they send me a new one, I think I'll request an upgrade instead, something like a 4060 / 4060TI but this time one from another producer like MSI / Gigabyte / Asus , not minding that I'll pay the difference for a quality one. Even if they agree to an upgrade with payed difference, I'm skeptical that they'll even ship me a GPU from a brand mentioned above so I'd love an advice here . Another thing that has been bothering me is that my PC still behaves as said initially when powering it up, even with this GPU (AMD Radeon RX550). Still have to do that "voodoo" when I try to turn it on. My mind is now thinking something's wrong with the motherboard as well...This is a rollercoaster of events I swear. One thing for sure, when I will get a solution from the company I bought the system from, I will replace that PSU with a SeaSonic one. I also got myself a 3000W line conditioner (I also have one 1500W lying around just in case and just as one of you guys adviced) that is currently connected and working fine and dandy. I knew that an UPS is vital for your PCs lifetime but I didn't think much of it. Another thing I was thinking was to just sell the PC and build one from components when I get a solution for the GPU I sent.
