Hi there,
I bought a prebuilt computer in march which worked fine, until a few weeks ago. It began to randomly not boot when I pressed the power button. It happened maybe like 1 out of 3 times and stopping it and rebooting by pressing the power button for a few seconds usually worked. Until yesterday...
I had to open the case to add a m.2 NVMe drive (I had to remove and put back the GPU because it was blocking the m.2 slot) and now I cannot boot anymore. I removed the m.2 drive but still no luck.
The motherboard's EZ Debug LED behavior isn't always the same. Sometimes both CPU and RAM stay lit, sometimes CPU lights up for a short time but no other LED lights up after that.
The case, CPU and GPU fans are working but nothing is displayed on screen.
What I already tried:

What I already tried:
- Switching screens and cables
- Only putting 1 RAM stick (I tried with several sticks on every socket)
- Unplugging and plugging back all cables
- CMOS reset
- Moving a bit the motherboard by loosening the screws
my config:
- MSI B450M Bazooka
- AMD Ryzen 2700
- Zotac geforce 2070 RTX
- 2*16G G.Skill Ripjaws V 3000
- PSU Thermaltake Smart 600W 80plus
