Around 2 years ago I build my first PC. I did not have an antistatic wriststrap to ground myself. Near the end of my build my monitor wouldn't turned on because the Ram wasn't fully plugged in so I fully plug it in while the PSU and the motherboard lights was on (I have Corsair Vengeance 2x8 3200 MHZ).
I had no problems with the PC for a while even though I did not ground and plug in Ram while PSU and motherboard lights was on, but after a while I would get BSOD occassionally for different error code each time and sometime my monitor would turn black for 2 second before turning back on. Or sometime the screen would turn into one color and I have to press Win + Ctrl + Shift + B to fix it. At the same time the monitor would get no signal if I accidently shake the HDMI cable too hard so sometimes I would be cautius of shaking the HDMI cable to not get bothered fixing the cord . I had a Ryzen 3 3200g with intergrated graphics so I thought the APU might did too much work so I brought gtx 1050 ti and the BSOD problem fix for a week and then it occur again but this time I only get PFN corrupt list and memory management error code for BSOD occasionaly after I install seprate GPU. Also when it goes to BSOD it go to 100% and it doesn't restart so I have to hold down the power button for 10 second to force shutdown.
I have Corsair Vengeance 2x8 3200 Mhz but when I set the speed to 3200Mhz the motherboard would boot on and off like 3 times before actually booting windows 10 on the monitor. One time I even accidently OC the speed to 3600 Mhz and the PC won't turn on at all so I had to clear CMOS.
Is there any ideas on which component I should replace because I would prefer not to replace my whole PC. Did not grounding myself fry my motherboard into damaging all the components connected to it or can some parts be saved.
Due to how messy are wires of my PSU, the wires also touch the metal part of the GPU and one wire is like resting on top of the pins of the GPU. I'm not sure if that's bad.
The PSU wires on the back of the case are also extending so far I can't close the back of the case so I'm not sure how bad is it to left the motherboard back pins in the air visibe. I may have touch the back of motherboard pins a couple times by accident.
