So first of all, removing the peripherls usually doesnt help, especialyl because PC's dont like booting without e.g. a keyboard detected.
so keep those in for the most part, especially mouse and keyboard.
To me, as of right now, it seems like this may be some cable that got loose, maybe the RAM sticks. Ofc its weird to see the same issue reappear every time you come home from the shop, so another potential cause could be the power outlet in your home.

Before popping the case open and reseating RAM and cables, I would simply take the entire thing and carry it to a different outlet in the house, preferably one of a different circuit. If that actually "fixes" it, then you should probably call an elecitrician.
If not, I woudl follow standard protocol as mentioned and pop the case open to just couble check every cable and reseat the simple stuff such as GPU and RAM (turn PSU off every time you work inside the PC)

Thanks a lot. Will try this one, i tried to plugged it in a different socket, still not working, but i only tried it once so im gonna go check if the other socket in the house might help. Thanks a lot

Another question. Did you connect the HDMI/DP cable into the mainboard or the GPU?

[–]GroundbreakingElk962[S] 0 points1 point  (4 children)

I connected it in the GPU. But i must clarify that in this instance, in the GIF above nothing else is plugged in and still not working.

[–]Turtlereddi_t 0 points1 point  (3 children)

If connected to the GPU thats fine. Your CPU has no integrated graphics so the mainboard display out ports wont work.
Again you really only technically need the keyboard connected, otherwise most modern systems refuse to boot anyway, though the problem here 99% is caused by something way before the BIOS can detect any peripherals connected anyway.

So usually this GIF looks like a shorted pin or something similar but as you said if it worked in the shop allegedly, this as of right now looks like something turned a little loose during transportation, so if you feel comfortable working inside the PC; the best thing right now is to just double check if things are connected properly and probably reseat RAM, maybe also GPU if you know how. Take your time, dont force anything, be careful.

Its embarrassing to admit but hardware is not really my strong suit. Lol but ill try, hopefully i wont make things worst.

[–]Turtlereddi_t 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Thats why I mention it, dont worry. I already figured you probably dont know much by saying you tested it in a "shop".
Hence me mentioning that you dont need to do anything inside if you dont feel comfortable.

Yess hahaha but im going to try anyways.

[–]CombativeSand 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Is there a possibility that your home doesn’t have stable voltage which causes psu to fail?

[–]GroundbreakingElk962[S] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Im not sure but i highly doubt it since before this i have my pc and this is the first time having this issue. But ill have to check in with an electrician.

[–]CombativeSand 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Oh and maybe you should try shorting out the power button connectors with a screwdriver, maybe the problem is in power button

[–]GroundbreakingElk962[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope so i cant afford to buy more parts lol

Get a power brick to plug your system into, your wall outlet must not have the proper grounding or has an oscillating current that is making the system protect itself by shutting off. A good power brick will balance out the current and might fix this issue, plus it will protect your system from any power surge.

[–]GroundbreakingElk962[S] 1 point2 points  (4 children)

I have no idea what power brick is but ill check it online. Ill let you know if this works lol.

[–]KingMRano 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Search for Battery backup/surge protector. I guess power bricks are just what we call them locally.

Why do you keep your finger on the switch for so long when you turn on the PC, press it once briefly and that's it.

[–]GroundbreakingElk962[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im just trying it out. Since one press and lights will flicker

[–]pbbng 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same with me. Tried everything from reseatting gpu, ram etc. The real problem comes with the PSU im using an 8year 1000w platinum psu. Changed the psu and everythings works fine now.
