It all started yesterday when I wanted to clean my pc. I opened it up, cleaned up with vaccum cleaner, turned on my pc and after a hour or so it just turned off (like if you would just unplug it from the wall). I tryed everything, messing with ram, its definitely not overheating, my pcu was working fine in the past few months, tryed unpluging cmos, nothing.

Something like this has happened in the past when I also cleaned it up from the dust.

It works for some time and then it shuts down PLEASE HELP ME NEW GRAPHICS CARD WILL ARRIVE IN 2 DAYS.

Specs?

May have bumped into something and loosened it. Check all the cables and reseat the ram as that would not be the first time that would be the culprit.

Static electricity from the vacuum probably killed your psu. It's a dumpster fire unit so not too surprising. Replace it with a quality psu and that should fix the issue of shutting down randomly due to power issues.
