A few weeks ago my gaming machine shut off. I started it several times and it would just shut down. The only place in town is Staples so I brought it in. Turned out to be my aging liquid cooling and I had them replace it with an air cooled alternative. It's and I7 with a 1070 graphics card, no over clocking. I picked it up after they fixed it, they also stress tested it for a few hours. Got home and it worked fine, played for several hours. The next day it wouldn't turn on, the motherboard light is on though. I brought it back down to Staples (which isn't much fun as I'm old and it's really heavy!). Plugged it in there and it started right up. Brought it back home and won't start. Tried unplugging for a while, pushing the start button for a minute to get the charge out. Different surge protector. Different wall socket. It does not want to work in my house.

Any ideas folks? I did order a psu tester and I'll try that tomorrow. It is a crappy old house out in the woods so maybe it's the wiring?
