So confused ??

Windows 10 pro

Samsung evo 960 ssd
Msi twin Frozr 7 1660 ti
Corsair Vengeance ddr4 2600
Ocz 750 gold series PSU

Shut my system down one night and it wouldn’t power on the next morning(only got a flash of the rgbs when power was supplied).

been working on it for days now... doing all the advice on here and testing everything buying new power supply, new motherboard, new ram after all this my best guess is the board is shorted or cpu has gone bad...

so I proceed to go spend money I really didn’t need to spend lol (the way my bank account is set up) buy a new 3600 and a 550 board. Come home eat with the family ready to install my parts went to clean everything up and the old rig is running and booted.. I’m so confused I really didn’t need to upgrade and would like to take the parts back but what in the world could cause that?

Troubleshooting steps I tried everything from trying to boot with minimal hardware (breadboarding, new ram, different ram in different slots, reseating the cpu. full reassembly of entire system part by part, clearing cmos, different older cpu, new psu, new cooler ) none of the steps above made any change I tried them daily for a at least 4 days the only thing that would happen is the RGBS on the board would flicker when you supplied fresh power I couldn't do any system troubleshooting because I'm unsure how and the system just came back on by itself while I was at the store..

Haunted hardware
Make sure there are no errant mobo standoffs poking the back of the board to create a short

It’s been breadboarded for 3 days in the same configuration literally nothing changed today.. haunted it has to be
