Best PC repair in town?
My PC has had some stupid issues, and the place I’ve been taking it to hasn’t really been cutting it.
Anyone know a good place to diagnose the issue, and I can just repair it myself?

Try Computer Doctor BG on Durango (there's a second location in Henderson). I've never used their service for computer repair (I used them for a iPhone battery replacement under warranty), but I eavesdropped on a conversation with someone having PC issues and they seemed competent.

PC powers on but doesn’t post.

The general way to diagnose this is to disconnect all things from the motherboard except power and RAM, connect keyboard, mouse and cable to onboard video and see if it posts.
If it doesn't post, then you're looking at a CPU, RAM or MB issue. Strip down to minimum RAM config. If it posts keep adding components til it fails. There's your problem.
If it doesn't post after stripping down to basics then take it into a shop if you're uncomfortable with using a multimeter.

Be extra careful about static, it's bad around here and can damage sensitive electronic components like memory sticks and motherboards.

u/Ok-Baby4864, this is your ideal first steps to troubleshooting a problem like yours. Isolate and illuminate.

Does your computer have a speaker connected to the MB? The number of beeps is a code on what failed during the POST, fancy gaming motherboards have an LCD display. The post code will tell you what is wrong.
As others pointed out it's probably hardware related of it isn't passing post, remove components until you find what is failed.

Did it post before or is this a new build?

Join 702 PC Gaming community on FB. Lots of people there can help and fix.
(It’s not my community I’m just part of it. Thought it’d be helpful so this is a preemptive chill TF out for any of you a-holes who rail me for making a suggestion).
This is a quality suggestion there are some very helpful people who know their stuff in there.
