So... Since December 2017, my computer is not showing video after I accidentally touched my TV antenna cable at the back of my case while moving it. It threw the cable away even tho the case was closed it touched the metal part on the back.
I tested my ram, graphics card and psu at a friend's computer and it was working, on my cpu it was too, leds working, fans working, just no video, so I tought I might had burned only the video part of the mobo, even tho even my GPU had it fans running. Tested the hdmi cable on my ps4 on the same TV port, pretty much was working, I was pretty sure I had burned my mobo somehow with the static, thing is, I did buy a new mobo, which when arrived had the same trouble, all working no vídeo at the beginning, so I thought it was damaged, I even took to an assistance in my town, even though I had 2 gpus and processors to try. He thought it was the mobo too, for even his video card got no vídeo. So I asked for a refund on the mobo, ok I got my money, sent it back and all, but once it did get there, the guy came and said it was working, that it should've been some component here, for me to look for it, he even sent pictures from the store and a video. To resume the thing, I ended up buying a new psu, thinking it was old so it may not have been delivering enough power since it was not the mobo, I ended up buying another processor since it was not the mobo or the psu or the GPU or ram, even tho I had 2, I basically have 3 processors now lol, and still no video. Since it's not the hdmi cable or the TV either, I tried changing the power cord too.
My question is, could it be that after that shock my PC case is not sending enough power at turn on to show video even tho my GPU had her fans working and all? Cause like I got not even a clue anymore on what it could be, I basically replaced and tested my entire building and I still can't get a video from it. The only thing I did not replace was my pc case and my house wiring lol, if you guys say it could be the pc case, it would be a relief, cause better trying another case than the house wiring. But I don't think it's the wiring either since my ps4 works just fine on the same wall socket. My only hope could be the pc case or if you guys have any ideas. Just to cover all of this I also tried cleaning the ram contact and putting one at a time, I even tried both hdmi and vga. I swear I covered all bases lol. And my PC is not old or anything, I bought it in the middle of the last year '-' any help would be awesome.
Edit 1: just so you guys have sure I covered all bases. I also did grounded myself while dealing with these things to make sure it had no more energy trouble before I finished. This is my 5th build. It was not my first time dealing with pc components or anything but no idea why it happened truly.
