My computer locked up one day and i couldn't use the mouse or keyboard and i noticed the system time didn't even change. the only way to turn it off was to hold the power button. upon powering back up all the fans spin up and lights come on. Although, no beeps from the speaker and not a single signal gets sent to the monitor. ill post my specs in as much detail as i can.

mobo: gigabyte 990
cpu: fx 6200 zambezi
ram: corsair 4x4 ddr3 at 1333
gpu: gtx 780 hydro copper classified
Samsung 1tb ssd
processor and gpu are watercooled (nothing was spilled as this is not my first water cooled system, if anything was spilled it would've only been the non-conductive coolant)
both monitors are acer and band new they also work on other computers so that cancels that out.

as for troubleshooting done so far:
comos was reset (battery removal method)
psu is working fine
I double and triple checked over the mobo for spillage (saw nothing)
cpu did not fry becasue temps never made it past 40c (maxed out)
same for gpu as teps never went past 33c (maxed out)

if theres anything else you need to know just ask and i will explain. i was just wondering if anyone had any ideas other than the mobo is fried. which im really hoping is not the case
 
is hard drive light flashing like its loading stuff or does it just sit there? Have u tried pulling all the memory out but one and trying to power on(mabe try one other stick in case ur first try finds the bad stick)? Have u tried pulling out the video card and watch hard drive led for normal signs of loading(sign of video card fail)?

yep i removed the ram and tried each individually. the video card i don't think is the problem, its brand new and hasn't been used more than 2 -3 days.
as for hdd i have a 1t ssd and a seperate 1t hdd i didnt actively look for signs of loading but i will try that now .
