Computer not POSTing after Artifacting

I left my desktop on for a while and when I got back it was not responding. I restarted it and was able to log back in to Windows but after a minute my screen was full of artifacts. I tried restarting it again but now it won't POST.

Update: I was able to get it to POST by turning the power off completely and waiting a few minutes. But now it says that my OC failed and forced me into the bios where it froze again after a few seconds. I suspect that there's something wrong with the motherboard as I've had the OC settings for months now and this is the first time I was forced into the bios because of an OC failure.

Update2: Now my PC is not even powering up. It's stuck in an on/off loop without getting into POST
