Just built it today and it ran fine for 5 minutes before it turned off and now I press the power and it just cuts out. Like its shorting out or something but i don't see anything that'd cause a short. I have
geforce gtx 970.
Msi gaming M5 motherboard.
16gb corsair vengeance.
i7-6700k 4.0.
H100i watercooling. 3 case fans. Powercool 850w psu.

The PSU is a couple years old and a quite dusty. I smelt something that came from the pc that was like a burn/melt or overheating smell(which obviously isn't good).. any solutions or suggestions I can do at home? I'll be taking it to a shop if I cannot resolve it.
