My PC, that's been working fine for months, suddenly started boot looping this morning. I've tried a ton of troubleshooting, but it still just boot loops. My specs are a 6700k, 32GB RAM, 3080, 750W PSU, z170mx gaming 5 mobo. I've tried reseating the GPU, reseating the RAM, using just 1 stick of RAM, tried all 4 sticks 1 at a time, replaced cmos battery, tried booting with no GPU, tried with a different GPU, and I tested that my PSU passes the paper clip test. All of these get the same result. The PC powers on for about a second, then turns off, then a few seconds later repeats the process. The PSU is new, ~4 months old.
The only thing I've done differently lately is put my PC to sleep last night instead of shutting it down, since I wanted to save my tabs that were open. I did restart it once yesterday with no issues. Surely sleep couldn't have caused this? Not sure what else I can try to fix this.
