    Buy one of my PCs and I will ship it to you from Germany with love. Also, colors and materials are fully customizeable. I am running 3 characters, 6 browser windows with about 100 tabs open, Photoshop, telegram, skype, excel, word, slack, filezilla, firefox, spotify, evernote, deepl, notepad++, discord and calculator at this very moment with no trouble at all. This may be a mini PC, but it's a beast. Like a dwarven warrior, small but powerful and can take a beating.

    I would have put 64 in it but the 64gb compatible mini-itx motherboards are still too new and expensive. Will have to wait another year or so.

    A bit too much bling for my taste, but still cool nonetheless.

    Turns out one of my two video cards must have had a short or something because with that one video card plugged in it causes the whole computer to shut down just a split second after turning on, but with the video card unplugged the computer works just fine.

    So I'll have to turn down the graphics for GS but otherwise I can still use my computer. Yay!

    And it doesn't look like either hard drive had any problems so I still have all of my data, which is the best part because I was really not looking forward to coding all of that shit again. Lesson learned: back up nightly! And that's even a euphemism!

    Could still be a PSU issue. What brand is it, how much is it rated for, and how much does your setup draw? If it were overworked I'd expect it to shut down when you first booted up, but it could be barely clinging to life. You can check PSU voltage with a multimeter if you're comfortable using one or in your BIOS as a last resort.

    What does the event log say?

    I bought a new PSU and had the same issue. That's when I (finally) thought to start unplugging things from the PSU to see if something was shorting out. Both my old and new PSU are 1200 watts and if I remember correctly I bought a more powerful PSU than I needed just in case, but I don't recall how much power my system can draw.

    Where would I find the event log?
