This was an overclocked machine i7-2600k, watercooled, p8p67 m pro from asus
One night my computer gave me a bsod, So I tried turning it back on and no post beeps fans spin.
Stripped it down to just cpu and ram and hfs, no post beeps.
removed ram and I got beeps, but I know that the ram and video cards are good.
reseat cpu, ram, video cards, changed psu no beeps or post fans spin.

tried a different board with dedicated video, and the motherboard showed the cpu

so I had concluded that it was most likely a motherboard going bad, so I bought the same asus board I previously had so no I wouldnt have any downtime reinstalling windows.

The new board came and it posted while I was bread boarding, I didn't do any overclocking, so I proceeded to putting everything back in my rig. I power up everything for the second time, now I get no beeps, no post, no video. I dissasemble everything down to just ram, cpu, and fan, different psu and no beeps, fan spin. This time I remove everything but the cpu and no beeps. Reseated the cpu, no beeps fan spin for about 10 seconds, turns off, restarts on its own no beeps.
reset the battery, cmos, repeated again with asus motherboards, both continue to have their same problems

I'm very frustrated and in need of help because I am losing too much down time and can't wrap my hands around this. Don't know what else to do.
