Hey everyone, today I cam home to find my pc essentially "frozen". I have my monitors set to turn off after 10 minutes of inactivity, but when I move the mouse or hit a key on the keyboard they turn right back on. That wasn't the case so I figured I should try to reset the pc using the button on the front panel, but thst didn't work either. Tried the power button to turn it off - same deal so I went around the back, shut off the psu and turned it back on, but the pc wouldn't boot. I've tried starting it with 1 stick of ram, 1 gpu, resetting the cmos, taking everything apart and putting it back together etc., but nothing has worked. The only thing that gives me any hope is the mobo power, reset, and oc genie buttons light up, but nothing happens when powering on from the onboard power button or the front panel button. I'm at my wit's end as this is my only pc and I need it for school. Any suggestions would be a huge help. Thanks in advance.

SPECS:
Mobo: MSI Gaming 7
GPU: 2× GTX 970
CPU: Intel 4790k
PSU: Corsair AX760
RAM: 8GB Kingston Hyper X Blu

I updated the bios and downloaded all the latest drivers just last week with no issues. I just bought the psu last month along with the mobo, but unfortunately I gave my old psu away to a friend so I don't have another to test with. Also forgot to mention that the case fans don't come on either. They're plugged directly into the psu, but I'm not sure if that has anything to do with what's happening. Also, I was using my pc to do homework this morning before leaving for the day. Not sure if hat has any relevance.

Will do, but I just want to clarify that my pc was on but unresponsive which led to me turning it off in the first place.
