My rig was working perfectly on last use which was last sat.

Now when turn on, went to boot loop, with endless beep code for like around 30s then restart. Does not display POST but once in a while it boot to POST and shut restart.

Suspected PSU or mobo

Specs are:

Gb z97mx gaming 5
I5 4670k
2x4gb corsair vengeance
Zotac gtx 980
120gb Samsung evo ssd
2x3tb hgst raid0
Cm 725w
Win8.1 pro

i assume you did not disable onboard graphics
unplug everything except your cpu, ram n mobo, plug to mobo output you should be able to boot into atleast bios... if still error most likely is mobo...

Disconnect your video card, mouse, keyboard, all SSD and HDD, all ram pieces except one. Power up and describe the beep codes here.

How does it cause it to loop?
I was able to boot up successfully before this incident though..

everyone here is trying to help you figure out, we also don't know what exactly happen...

the clear bios method is the last resort...

Will give it a try when I get home tonight

But iirc I read somewhere on GB support page regarding their beep codes. Endless short beeps are power supply fault. Won't PSU be on a higher suspicion if failure?

follow the support page then, it is more concrete in your case.
