Hello, so I've got a somewhat odd situation. I was playing overwatch on my PC and it randomly turned off. When I tried to turn it back on, the PC powered on for 20 seconds and then turned back off and this cycle kept on repeating. (There was no display and no power received by peripherals when the PC was on). When I removed my GPU and connected the HDMI to the motherboard, the problem persisted. I removed my ram and replugged it in after which the whole system (without the GPU) worked fine. I reinstalled my gpu and started the system and it took a little longer to boot but it eventually ended up outputting video. However, now it outputs a few seconds of video and goes black for a few seconds. This cycle repeats itself. I am able to use the PC normally (haven't tried gaming yet) but this problem is still persisting. I tried updating to the latest gpu driver and now the screen has gone completely black. Please help as this has not happened with me for the two years I've had this PC. Any help would be highly appreciated.
My specs: i7 6700k, 2x8GB Ddr4 2133, MSI Aero GTX 1070 8g oc, ga z170 hd3p motherboard
PS: I'm fairly certain it's not the display (MG278Q) as its working fine with the PS4 and the PC when it doesn't have the GPU in it
