How would a computer case randomly shut off a computer?
After about two nights of trying to fix a desktop computer, we have replaced every part (even the motherboard and PSU) except for the case and hard drive, we even disconnected the power switches, lights and case usbs and still it will power down randomly.
It can be turned on straight away after it turns off.
the motherboard doesnt lose power, it just turns off.
Literally the only thing i can come up with is the case fan is doing it or a bent piece of metal is touching the motherboard.
Any advice is good.

Yo, the power most likely. Get a UPS to stabilize it.

There is another semi powerful computer connected to the same powerboard that is fine. We've tried different IEC plugs, the power going into the computer should be fine.

Have you tried powering it on outside the case?
Build the PC on the motherboard box before putting it in the case.

The 600W version of that psu is one of the three I've tried.

I managed to get it running okay with the computer on its side, case looks all fine. I'm still confused.

>computer on its side
Elaborate
Do you mean the case (with all parts inside) is laying on its side? Or something else? (Pics would help)

Grounding, fag lord
My first ever build had a similar problem till i made sure to properly place the standoffs and remove a hidden screw under the mobo.
