I bought a brand new pc from my friend just a few weeks ago. The problem is, the first time i took the pc to my house, it wont turn on. Then i send it back to him. But, its work fine at his house. So i bring the pc back to my house for 2nd time and it work fine JUST for 3 days. It wont turn on on day 3 after shutdown for more than 10hour. Then again, i bring the pc back to my friend house. THE PC WORKS JUST FINE. 1 tap at the power button and it turn on. Bring the PC back home for 3rd time, i can turn it on, play game for a few hours, try shutting it down and power it on again for a couple time. It work like a normal pc it should be. Then, after i shutting it down for like 10hour, it wont turn on again. So i told my friend its happen again and he told me 'maybe' my house electrical was unstable and ask me to buy an AVR or UPS.

Yeah sounds like a problem with your house, not the PC, since that's the only variable changing. A UPS will help you.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Well, where did you plug your PC? Any adapter? Or just into the wall?

I plug the pc on adapter at first. After the problem surface, i tried plug the PC to the wall socket. Nothing happen. I did try all the socket i have in my apartment.

On the side notes, i live in the suburban area. An old apartment. My friend live in urban area so, electrical problem maybe? ?
