Hi!

So one morning while turning on my computer to do work, it started to boot up then power down and continue to do this over and over. I have a i72600k on a Gigabyte Intel Z68 ATX DDR3 2133 LGA 1155 Motherboards GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 with Cosair Vengence DDR3 1600 and currently using integrated graphics and Raidmax 600W PSU

While booting it doesn't not show anything on the screen, I'm using the integrated intel graphic. the Phase LED shows DD1: green DD2: green DD3: yellow DD4: red

The RAM is seated on slot 2 and 4 and i switched it to 1 and 3 and then i tried one RAM stick on each slot and did the same for the 2nd stick. I've also bought new RAM and tried the same. No success.

I've also bought a new Corsair 650W PSU and something weird happen, the system doesn't even power on and shut down anymore, so I tested to see if its a dead PSU by jumping it with paper clip and a fan connected and it powers up. Then I try jumping on the Mobo and nothing happens, then I plug the old PSU and it powers up and powers down.

I've also cleared the CMOS

So i'm really confused why a new PSU and RAM with nothing but the CPU and fan connected doesn't power up but with the old PSU it powers up and powers down continuously...What should my next step be?

I read somewhere some mention to reseat the CPU, I don't understand why doing this would help and nothing happened to cause it to even unseat the CPU...I'm thinking the MoBo is dead? but I'm confuse about the new PSU not even powering up the system but the old PSU was able to power it.

Thank you for any suggestion!

So after more searching on the interweb and YouTube, it turn out to be a faulty bios and I forced the computer to copy the backup Bios to the main one, since this has dual bios. I did this by turning off the computer and then holding the reset and power for 7-10 sec. It then continued to boot and loop about 3 times then it posted! So happy that it wasn't the Mobo since searching online no retail carries LGA 1155 anymore or if they did it was like $300 or buy a used one on ebay...
