Extremely Odd Problem

I just finished putting together a build in a Case-Labs SMA8 with Ax1500i, Rampage IV Black Edition, 4930k, etc. And everything appeared to work fine but now i'm getting an interesting problem where the power supply anti-surge crap in the Asus bios is being triggered and the computer shuts off whenever I close the side panel of the case. Anyone have an idea of what this is?

Static electricity? Bad ground? Bad psu?

Also, do u wear a sweater? I weared it in the winter, so whenever I touched my NAS it turned off, I was just insane about it.

my signature applies here.

We can't Benchmark like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to shove more GPUs in your computer. Like the time I needed to NV-Link, because I needed a higher HeavenBench score, so I did an SLI, which is what they called NV-Link back in the day. So, I decided to put two GPUs in my computer, which was the style at the time. Now, to add another GPU to your computer, costs a new PSU. Now in those days PSUs said OCZ on them, "Gimme 750W OCZs for an SLI" you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had two GPUs in my rig, which was the style at the time! They didn't have RGB PSUs at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big green ones.

Doubt it would be a bad PSU, used it to bleed the system and it was in use before in the old case working fine. How would I go about finding a bad ground?

No way u can do it properly without harming yourself.

Just give it a try with another psu or follow @guillaumedsde comments.
