I have recently had trouble with my PC, where I am having trouble pinpointing the problem. I built it myself about 7 years ago and it's the first major problem I have had with it.

 

The PC turned itself off a couple of weeks ago and I mean just went off instantly. After that when I pressed the power button the graphics card fan would spin up for half a second but the PC would instantly go off again. The next morning it was behaving the same, however in the evening it powered up fine and booted into windows for about 5 minutes. I have disconnected every component and re built the PC from scratch, cleaned all dust out of fans heatsinks etc. I even removed cleaned cpu added new TIM, but it still does the same. Sometimes it doesn't start and sometimes it does but never more than 10 minutes and I have monitored temperatures and voltages of cpu when I am able to boot.

 

Any ideas about what I should troubleshoot or what is most likely the issue would be greatly appreciated

Knowing the full system specifications would be great. Have you changed anything (hardware or software) before the issue began?
