I have boot loop, no POST, no BIOS. Problems started about month ago. I had to wait ~10min for successful boot but now I can't boot even after 1 hour. Unfortunately, I don't have MB speaker, so there are no beeps.

Things I have done:
- cleared CMOS
- changed CPU thermal paste
- used single RAM stick in every socket
- checked with other PSU
- disconnected everything except CPU, CPU fan, RAM
- tried to boot MB with CPU and RAM outside case
- bought new motherboard! - nothing changed (I'm gonna return new one)

Specs:
- CPU: intel i5 4690k
- motherboard: Gibabyte ga-Z97X gaming 5
- RAM: 4x 4GB G.Skill TridentX 2400MHz
- PSU: be quiet! Pure Power L8-CM-630W
- GPU: ASUS GTX 770
- SSD, HDD, DVD

Is CPU dead? I was almost sure that's motherboard. CPU was overclocked (@4.5GHz).
