PC a little over a year old stops functioning for no reason - would really appreciate help as I cannot afford another PC

Post Body

For some background, this PC is new and almost nice as it gets with a 3080 and a 5800x. I custom built this PC around 2020 and it has been functioning properly for the last year and a half (running all the games I need, editing all the photos, etc) However a day ago, I turned on my PC and it just bluescreens. Alright at this point I am a little worried but it’s alright I just restart it and go about my day, right? Nope, when I restart it one of my monitors don’t have a signal, I can go into windows just fine open up a chrome tab and search things, however the second I open Roblox the gameplay is so unplayable, 2 frames a minute compared to the 144 it usually runs in any game.

TLDR: My pc bluescreened yesterday and one of the monitors gets no signal anymore(bought the monitor same time as pc) and when running anything remotely heavy the computer is completely unusable and doesn’t function. Boots into windows just fine.

I have a suspicion that it has to do with a power outage since I had one the other day and it stopped working around that time. I don’t smell anything smoky and everything turns on fine though.

PS: I do not think it has to do with cooling since I got a 7 fans in my PC case, a 360mm AIO on my cpu, and a gpu with a huge heatsink.
