Got electrocuted from a psu screw so i decided to check out what was up. This was in the middle of troubleshooting why the pc wasn't turning on. Took it to a technician and they concluded that the psu is dead. Gigabyte btw

    Not sure which country you’re in but do you have any earthing or ground issues with your power?

    Its a grounding issue then. Most indian homes (of relatively older construction) dont have grounding (at least on all AC circuits). Call your electrician to find if he can ground at least the circuit your PC is connected to.
    I had the same issue a few months back (did no damage to my psu afaik). Moved to a newly built home recently and no more of this issue.

    Is it one of the widely-reported dodgy gigabyte PSU models? The ones they were bundling with GPU’s?

    Every metal part of my PC case electrocutes upon touch. I know it is grounding issue, but it works fine so idk

    I live in Indonesia and I had this exact issue before, DO NOT leave it alone, it will eventually damage all kind of your PC part, even faster if you have bad PSU, broke down my rx6800 and had to replace motherboard as well after ignoring it for 4 months or so, this is a grounding issue, most likely with your electricity wiring, contact your electrician and tell him you want to ground your house, OR usually the cheaper option would be to locally ground the exact wall plug that your PC connected to.

    pay your mother-in-law to clean the computer.

    A temporary solution is to take one end of a speaker wire and tape it on the side panel and take the other end and just tape it to the wall or floor.

    I dont know how but it grounds it completely.
