you might have tripped the power supply overcurrent protection. have you tried unplugging the computer from power, leaving it for 10 minutes and then powering it on? without the new gpu installed ofc?

Moved to the Troubleshooting section.

 

With the RTX 3070 removed switch the power supply off and then on again at the switch on the back of the power supply, then try booting the system.

Posts in Off Topic don't count towards the number. 

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.
