Pc started dying a couple weeks ago where in the middle of use, my pc would die unexpectedly like my house had lost power, I thought maybe my cpu was overheating so I replaced the thermal paste and cleaned out my entire physical pc. It worked fine after that and then when I came back from a weekend of vacation, it would not even post. As of now I have my pc stripped to motherboard, my cpu, one stick of ram in the A2 slot, psu plugged in and my ssd plugged in.

My setup
Motherboard: Asus Z97 Pro
CPU: Intel i5 4690k
RAM: G.Skill Trident X 8 gig (2x)
GPU: Asus GTX 970
SSD: Samsung 840EVO 250 GB
HDD: Seagate Baracuda 500 GB
PSU: Corsair RM850X Gold

No, none of the pins are bent, everything should be connected now. Can include pictures.

Before it wouldnt boot, about 40 times or so, once it died it would die quicker and quicker, sometimes not even making it to log on screen. Havent cleared CMOS before, dont know how. :/

UPDATE: Turned on pc again, VGA_LED flashed red, CPU_LED flashed red, and DRAM_LED flashed red. They flashed 1-2-3 turning off before the next turned on in the listed order. Did that twice and then only the VGA_LED stayed on for awhile, and the BOOT_DEVICE_LED came on and stayed on after the VGA went off. After 10 seconds or so, pc died and tried to restart.

When you have power going to the motherboard, but before you try to boot the PC, is the DRAM_LED continuously on? If so press and hold the MemOK! button next to it until the DRAM_LED starts blinking. The motherboard on it's own, will try to tune the memory for a successful boot.

If you mean having the PSU in the on position but not powering the pc on, There are no lights on other than the motherboard power button.

UPDATE: Pc will get power for 1 second and before fan spins up it dies. Sometimes it will turn on for a little longer and the CPU_LED Will shine red before dying. Consistently turning off after CPU_LED flashes red.

Uploading a video of the boot up, theres a moment where it stays on and the qr read out is stuck at 00 with just the fans running, after a while qr code changes and computer dies.

Not sure, it dies too quickly afterward. Might be able to tell if you slow the video down, about to post it now.

I think it goes to 08 then to 10 then back to 08 and then off. Can confirm, it goes to 08, the CPU_LED turns on, goes to 10 then back to 08, CPU_LED shuts off and the pc dies.

Your eyes must be quicker than mine, i definitely see it flash 14 several times, but it may have flashed 8 at the very end. Too quick for my eyes to be sure.

I slowed the video down to 0.25 and kept pausing until i landed on the number changes at around 1:36-1:37 in the video.
