Ram: G.skill 1600mhz 2x4GB
ODD: LG DVD RW
HDD: WD Blue 1TB
GPU w/Graphics Card(?): POWER COLOR 7870 2GB PCS+ MYST

Take out ur gfx card and try booting. Looks like ur PSU not enough power

Might be a loose connection or something shorting.

One by one resit all your hardware. Ram, graphic card, connector, etc.

I tried plugging out the gfx card and cd rom.. still doesn't solve the problem.. could it be my psu have failed?

Try booting computer with ssd only (I assume that's ur boot drive) with everything else unplugged

Most likely it either motherboard or psu kaput liao (ssd unlikely). Got spare psu to power comp?

Try paper clip test with your psu.
Try running with just psu , mobo+CPU and see if it will keep running for long. I used to have the exact same mobo as you until it died on me.

Also since you didn't mention, is there any beep codes?

 

[Bababah]

No spare psu.. my one n only desktop.. any advise where to repair?

 

[Bababah]

no beep codes.. all fans will run.. includes cpu fan.. but just for less than 2 seconds....

will try psu+mobo now

i got this recently when i change my 7850 to gtx970.. i solved it by removing my cmos battery for 1 min

edit: just notice we got almost the exact same setup

 

[Bababah]

I unplug ssd/hdd/gfc/cdrom.. remove battery then put back also... still same problem.

Like that must go sim lim to troubleshoot liao

Edit: unless there is a nearby it shop that can help

Maybe mobo spoil

I had the same problem. My issue is with the graphic cards if i use DP. But if i use hdmi, it will boot.

Still not sure where is the issue with the DP though.
