Had a sudden shutdown while playing rust, tried restarting, it powers up and nothing displays on my monitor, and no beep which doesn't sound good. Looked inside the desktop, everything seems perfectly fine. All fans running (psu fans too). Hard drives running. I have no idea what the problem is. I am guessing its my motherboard but I am not sure. What could be the problem?

Sounds to me like the PSU died...

Try a different PSU or the PSU on a different computer... If all check ok, then the motherboard may be the cause, but in my experience with dead motherboards, they sometimes make a single beep every 10-15 seconds or nothing powers on, except for the CPU fan running slow, intermittently, or on slow and later doesn't. Check the motherboard capacitors, if none is bulged even slightly, cracked or leaking, chances are the mobo is good.

I was planning on buying an expensive motherboard today as I genuinely thought it was that that had died as it was the oldest thing in my PC. I put the effort in and unwired my PSU and simply plugged it into another PC in the house. Strangely enough it did the exact same thing. I'm so glad I asked for help on here and I'm glad you answered Chicano because I would have bought another unneeded motherboard and still had a dead psu. Thank you!
