The computer freezes from static electricity, how to find the cause?

My carcass builds up a static charge very easily. Usually, the technique endured all sorts of discharges from me quite steadfastly. But the new computer freezes even from the smallest discharge to any place in the case of the system unit. At the same time, the screen immediately goes blank (the signal to the monitor disappears), the fans in the system unit accelerate (as when turned on), the sound still goes through the headphones for a few seconds. And then everything. Reboot only. The computer does not respond to key presses. After a reboot, a message appears stating that the `radeon wattman` settings have been reset to default.
By what means (hardware / software) can you try to figure out the cause of such freezes? Maybe someone has experienced something similar?

To protect against such phenomena, grounding is necessary.
PS Another thing may be in the power supply and / or motherboard. If somewhere the capacitor is broken into the case, there will be the same special effects due to voltage surges in the secondary circuits.

The reason is simple - static electricity. And that's it.
This is an abnormal mode of operation when the current is fed into the system unit.

I used to have my computer freeze all the time. Experimented. After pulling the computer out of the case, the glitches stopped. Changed body. The computer has been working fine for 8 years now.
If only it "shoots" from you, but not from other people in the same room, try changing clothes to more cotton ones. Use an antistatic agent.
If it shoots from everyone, and not just from you, then the carpeting may be unsuccessful.

Monitor and PC plugged into the same "pilot"? Is this pilot with ground pins?
As an option, turn the plug in the socket at the system unit.
