Never ending rebooting loop

I recently built a new machine around the third gen Ryzen launch. Last night after rebooting it went into a loop of restarts. It will attempt automatic repair and then reboot again. I put a recovery flash drive in and it reboots when windows recovery starts to load. I've tried a different boot drive, isolating/ reseating ram and CPU as well as power connectors. I've also tried another video card and resetting the bios. The only thing I haven't tried is swapping out power supplies (don't have another one). The entire machine has new parts except for the PSU, could that be the problem?

Tried a new power supply, still having the same issue. It did boot into windows for a split second (all to way to my wallpaper) then rebooted again.

Sounds like RAM. 

 

You can try using just one RAM stick at a time, on all different slots etc.

 

Before you do any of that reset CMOS tho. (by removing the CMOS battery for about 10 minutes) 

The direction tells you... the direction.
