3 Week Old Gaming Computer Problems

Ok, so I built this computer for Christmas and it worked fine for 3 weeks. Now it shuts down (black screen) immediately and then goes into a cycle on/off every couple seconds until I shut psu off or turn it off manually (sometimes works). This shuts off after about 2-10min of usage, and then goes into that cycle. I tried fixing it myself for 3 hours checking plugs, cables, and outlets but didn't work. So, I took it to a shop and could see what they could do... Is there anything else I should do?
