Hey everyone, I'm in a bit of a bind with my PC. It won't turn on and doesn't show anything on the monitor. I've tried reseating the RAM and SSD, and I have the T-Force 8x2 3600MHz. The strange thing is I recently sold my old RAM, which I later discovered was defective. One of my current RAM sticks won't post, while the other just gets stuck at the logo screen. I've checked my current RAM, and it posted fine before, but now it's not responding at all. Also, when I press the power button to turn it off, it just blinks, forcing me to do a hard shutdown. Any idea what might be going on?

Sounds like your PC might be on its last legs. You could try testing each component one by one to see if anything works. If you're not hearing any beeps when you try to power it on, that's usually a bad sign. Also, have you tried resetting your BIOS to default settings?
Try disabling XMP in the BIOS if you have it enabled. If that does the trick, you could set the DRAM Frequency to 2933 for better stability. Also, consider disconnecting your drives temporarily to see if that helps with the post issues. It’s likely a motherboard problem, but hard to say for sure without more testing.
This happened to me once when my motherboard started failing. Check if your motherboard has any diagnostic lights. If they’re showing issues related to the RAM or CPU, you might be in trouble. Good luck!
I feel your pain! Since you can't even get into BIOS or see any signal, it’s tough to troubleshoot. Have you checked all your connections and power supply? Sometimes it could be as simple as a loose connection.
