Computer "turns on" (all fans an leds turn on) for 30 or so seconds before restarting. Monitor says that it is not connected to anything. Thermaltake tr2-600watt psu, i7 3770k 3.4ghz cpu (factory settings, not overclocked or anything) 550ti video card.

Recorded a video of what happens when I
turn it on.

Edit: there used to be 5 short beeps while holding the power button, but now nothing happens

Yesterday it was working fine; could it have broke overnight? The problem started this morning when I turned it on

yeah probably the psu. i had an off brand 550w psu, an i3 and 660 and it would boot up for just a minute or two then go back off. thats why I bought a psu that was overkill :)

Can we turn this into a PSU recommendation thread then? What can I buy for less than $200 that is reliable?

This is a really reliable PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817207020&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=
