PC Crashed, not posting

Go to solution Solved by arielbeje,

Yes, but I can't do it now, I'll do it later

After more troubleshooting, I found out that the GPU is dead.

While I played DayZ SA, my PC stopped working(sound only). When I tried to Alt/Windows+Tab it didn't work so I tried Ctrl+Alt+Delete and the screen froze black.

When I restarted my PC, it worked but didn't post, so I tried booting with one RAM stick, and resetting the CMOS still not posting. I checked all the connections. Any ideas?

EDIT: Only sound worked*

Did you put the RAM in different slots?

Firstly no, then I tried to do that and it didn't change anything.

Is it possible the RAM is dead?  Do you have any other sticks laying around?  Have you flashed the BIOS?
