Technical Support for custom built

I built my computer about 6 months ago and had no trouble before. This weekend I got a new monitor and set it up and worked perfectly. I rearranged my room and moved my PC over and it would not boot up. Got it checked out and learned the PSU was bad, no problem. Got a new PSU and still would not turn on, learned the PSU had voltage and was told the board was bad. Grabbed a new cheap motherboard until I can RMA my old one and now my PC at least turns on, but does not boot up or display anything at all. Also does not beep when I take out the RAM.

Is this a relatively common problem, for everything to die at once?

Could the processor also be bad or is there another reason why I can't get a display?

My current PC:
i5-4670k
AsRock H81M-HDS
EVGA 500w PSU
2 x 4GB Kingston Red DRM1600
Seagate Barracude HDD 1TB

Yes, sometimes all pieces could die due to voltage instability, not common but it happens.

When your PC starts up with RAM on it, is there any beep code? if not make sure you have your speaker correctly connected, there's also the chance your speaker got damaged with the previous PSU so make sure its working or get another one to properly diagnose your current problem.

There's no beep code at all, and the motherboard and PSU are completely new now. I'm going to go buy a new processor and RAM cards today to see what else could be the issue. I am just so suprised that everything seems to be dead.

Any way to prevent this in the future?
