    Hi, Welcome to SF

    Issue could be with your power supply unit (PSU). Try to replace it with a spare one and check. Make sure all the hardware is properly connected and seated in the slots.

    Keep us posted.

    I'll try. Because the PSU I'm using is the stock one so that may be the problem

    Please try a branded PSU. As the "cheap" PSUs do not provide the documented wattage to the PC.
