Hey,
I've been building my new pc today. I connected everything but just now noticed that my PSU doesn't have a ground pin in it's cable. It's a seasonic 520w psu. Also I felt a small shock from the top of my dvd drive which never happened with my old pc. So now I just turned off everything since i don't want to risk any components. Did they misplace the cable? Should I use a normal cable instead this one.btw it has a hole in the place of third pin and some metallic contacts are visible inside it.

Get a 3 pin cable for the PSU. Check the current and voltage rating of the current cable and get a 3 pin cable with same or higher current/voltage rating. Price is around RS 40.
