thanks, i already ruled out PSU as I've tested it at SLS, no problem with their sockets used there.

It still produces the shocks even with only the PC plugged in, with no other devices connected.

strange thing is, i only notice it happens to my PC, not to other devices around the house. I tested on my ipad, mobile, etc., no shocks or anything.

curious, any diff if u wear shoes...?

just thinking could be other components than your casing perhaps any USB peripherals or the GPU cable to monitor or speaker that cause the issue, if you do have extra keyboard, mouse or HDMI cables or disconnect the speaker to try and see if it happen the same.

wah, i never really noticed but in SLS obviously i was wearing some form of footwear...

@Yongkit i tested with and without peripherals connected, issue exists regardless.

i called my usual electrician.. the uncle told me to spot for any of the following first, before deciding to call for anything further

1. sparks
2. see if other appliances are facing the same issue for different sockets around the house

so both 1 and 2 don't apply leh

Try wearing rubber slippers at home to see if you get the same issue?

If no, then could still be a PSU issue...

Maybe you can get a UK socket tester to test you socket outlet.
