Hello,
I cannot turn on my PC at all until I unplug something, like when I try to turn it on it doesn't work, I unplug the Display port then I turn it on and after it turns on I replug it.
I also have problems with shutting down, I sit the pc down from Windows and it shows me the "shutting down" thing and then it suddenly shuts off like it's been unplugged from the wall.
I have my AC, phone, monitor, router and PC.
And I'm using some extensions and adapters because the wall plug is pretty far.
By the way I replaced my Mobo CPU, ram and GPU because the previous build had other problems.

Thanks in advance.

No, I'm from Israel.

That's the first thing I would look at. Get rid of the adapters or get a proper extension and get a UPS is you can.

Instead of unplugging the Display port try turning the power supply off and see if that works

This^, clear the possible source of the problem first, a uninterrupted power supply can save all kinds of electronics.

I'm a trained PAT man. Running an AC unit, PC and all that jazz from a single socket via an extension cable absolutely terrifies me. That your extension cable hasn't yet melted (I'm gonna hazard a guess it's not 1.25mm grade core either) is surprising.

Issue is more likely to do with your power delivery than your actual PC.

Can you suggest me a solution?

I unplugged everything but the PC and it worked perfectly fine.
It's just that I don't have anywhere to plug my other electronics.

Sounds like you need a professional to install more plugs in your house and make sure they are earthed too.

My bedroom is a shelter, so it's pretty hard to drill in the wall, but thanks for the advice, i'll see what i can do.

Sounds like 1st problem solved
however you still have that power Supply issue

Probably by doing something along these lines

I have to agree, it now seems to have reached a "blood from a stone" type situation.The solution is either find a different source to power your other devices or a different source to power your PC can't be both.

Either that or possibly More efficient devices I suppose is an option, as unlikely as it may be to complete

edit*
looking @ your system in specs, If i were in your situation, there are several things i would remove from your PC to cut down on its power draw footprint.....as much as we love our OP PC's, we also need to be realistic..

i7 to either i5 or i3, maybe even pentium
H100 for either stock, NO OC option, etc..
maybe go wireless and remove Router to a different location, turn off AC for 100% certain :)
Hell even removing that discreet video card you have when you don't 100% need it would help greatly.
neutering a PC isnt a nice thought, but it seems to be a reality for your situation. sorry to say

It seems like your "loading" the circut, meaning you're turning devices on in a particular sequence which allows the circuit not to blow or become overloaded. My fear is that you've got all this running through extension cords and adapters and I don't know how you haven't gotten a fire started by now or at least a melted power cord or adapter.please be careful

There is another solution, there is a second outlet but if i use it, it'll be right beside the door, so anyone who walks in, can easily f**k everything up.
I'll try to drill and make a second socket on Saturday and i'll let you know what happens.

Please, be careful. id hate to not get an update from you....:eek:

a small tip.
I have had the unfortunate experience to spend large amounts of time in Hot concrete and steel rooms, which i didnt have an option to leave, and I used to hang wet towels, in combination with a fan, to cool the air as best as i could. maybe that would make the temp bearable for you without the power draw of an AC unit. just a thought is all.

Don't worry :love:
But if you don't hear from me I'll probably be dead.
