WhatsApp conversation of the issue

The gaming PC I built for my client has a problem. As seen in the screenshot of the WhatsApp message above, the gaming PC randomly turns off. My client has to force shutdown and turn on the main electricity supply to be able to turn on the PC again. Changing the HDMI cable didn't make things better. If anything appears on screen at all, it shows that the PC is booting. The PC was fine for about three months.
