Thanks, I'll check out my local shop for one. Also, does my outlet being funny have to do something with my GPU acting up then?

I might have to call an electrician then. Also, I only get zapped whenever I hear my PSU make that buzzing sound/coil whine. As long as it doesn't make noise, it really doesn't zap me.

Does that also explain my intermittent black screens as well as mild shock from thumb screws? Some threads say that coil whine is not really harmful.

I found this, and it sounds pretty familiar.

I have a FSP Hydro 700w. My rig is Ryzen 3 1200, Sapphire NITRO+ RX 580 4GB, 4GB + 8GB RAM (diff brands), three HDDs and one SSD. I used to have a VS450 over my Hydro 700w because that PSU led me to frequent black screens that lasted for 2-5 seconds and occasional shutdowns. Ever since I bought this PSU second hand, those shutdowns stopped happening but the black screens still occur though more seldom. I'm beginning to think this is a GPU problem. However, I noticed that this PSU started making odd buzzing sounds, lest this is coil whine? It's my first time encountering a buzzing sound or coil whine so I can't tell which is which. Though if you should know anything else, touching the thumb screws shock me a bit whenever the PSU starts buzzing. Two PCI-e cables are plugged to my GPU instead of one. BIOS switch is right-ward, away from the video ports. Having it left-ward causes my games to have some pretty yucky lag spikes but keeping this right-ward fixes all of those performance issues at the expense of those occasional black screens. I did some research but the answers were never concrete and always varied. Some say it's PSU, some say it's GPU but some also say that it's the drivers. I'm currently 21.1.1 and this performs way better than older drivers I've tried, unless you know an old driver that works better. Because of this, I've been thinking if I should ditch my PSU and buy something new. I have my eyes on Segotep GP650G and costs 2,900php (roughly 60usd / 50eur). Problem is, there isn't enough information out there to push my decision to buy it. After all, it's Chinese and pretty unknown to me. Though some reviews and forums say that it's completely reputable. I absolutely cannot afford something like the RM650, it's twice as pricey and I also can't seem to accept the chance that my GPU could be borked or something. I'm just a student who earned money from allowance for 5 years to get where I am right now lol. I know this is farfetched, but I might try using a different cord to see if that helps or something. Would absolutely appreciate help... Let me know if I should bite the bullet and buy the Segotep GP650G.

Update: Clearing the CMOS didn't help either... I disassembled my GPU to see if something was wrong and nothing seems to be out of ordinary as the fan doesn't show signs of obstruction at all.

I hope that helps. I'll try in a bit. And if it doesn't, I don't have another PC to test it with. I've got a friend that may help me out though, but he's quite far so I'll do what I can before I decide to go to his place.

GPU: Palit GTX 750 2GB StormX; OS: Windows 10 Pro I've got a nasty problem lads. I know that some cards are only designed to spin when they reach a certain temperature and/or when you create a curve. I only recently got into cooling and keeping my temperatures low because I used to neglect my fans as long as I could be a gamer. So the problem here is, my fan doesn't spin at all, even without the use of external programs like Afterburner. I've been checking my temps through HWMonitor and saw my temps go beyond 85c and the fan still isn't spinning. When I discovered that my fan doesn't spin at all, the first thing I did was to use Afterburner and learn about making curves. No spin. I even set it on flat 100% speed and still won't spin. I tried Palit's ThunderMaster and it prompted me that my fan refuses to spin no matter what. But that kinda baffled me because the fan seems to be spinning properly when I'm in my BIOS. I was thinking that it might be a software/driver issue, so I booted to Manjaro and the fans stop spinning as I get into the login screen. I tried playing games on Manjaro and got to 85c, still no spin. It must be my GPU fan coughing already, because this thing served me for 4 years already! I went to Reddit to ask about this and no one really replied so I hope someone could help me out here.
