Long story short, I bought a brand new Computer case. All the components are EXACTLY the same from my previous case, which made a pretty powerful computer. After installing, I turned on the PC and it immediately shuts off. Then it begins the on/off loop. What the heck happened!!??

During troubleshooting, I was able to run the computer normally with only TWO 8gb memory stick. Adding anymore would bring back the problem. I am going from 32gb to now 16 gb
 
Solution
see if your missing a standoff near the ram slots or if the mb tray is bent up and the ram slots are shorting to the tray. if you think it a short try using a small rubber bumper under the mb to stop it from shorting out.
