Hello, about 8 months ago I built my second computer, the first one lasted a good 4 years however for my gaming requirements I upgraded everything and started from scratch.

About 3 months ago I started to get this issue where my computer would not turn on at all and the only way to get it to turn on was to hold the power and flick the switch at the wall, or the alternative was to unplug the plug from the wall wait a bit and plug it back in and it would usually start first time, all seems very strange. Anyway this issue has just kept on going and now the computer is turning off randomly (this is new) like a power cut. Anyone got any ideas what is possibly wrong? Everything is connected 100% inside correctly.

Thanks in advance
