#Graphical Issues - Connecting Displayport to GPU I/0 I can see small blue electrical arc

As stated above, I've had this PC for about a few months now, to which it has had plenty of problems due to it constantly needing to be repaired via CMD - files are slow to drag and drop, processes are slow, and sometimes I get graphical issues e.g. oversaturated/undersaturated colours or flickering

Despite this, on the two occasions with the computer was sent back to CyberPower - (It was BSODing frequently) only the CPU has been replaced and seemingly no BSOD's. - performance wise everything seems to be fine when scanned by the system for the exception of the drive being corrupted and repaired every now and then.

When reconnecting cables - (I shutdown the PC) - the DisplayPort for my main monitor touched the GPU's I/O shield, which led to (minor) blue sparks being emitted - the screen works fine right now and is what is being used to type this on.

There is also an issue with a grinding sound being emitted from somewhere within the PC - (sounds closest to the PSU but could be the AIO fans).

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I would like to get this resolved as soon as possible - Thank you very much ^^

(I will try to attach the sound that I am hearing for better clarification, spark wise the arc is too small to catch on video but looks like when you touch a piece of electrified tinfoil to another conductive metal)
