My pc suddenly turned off. By that I mean the PC was still on with the keyboard lights still on. Monitor suddenly just went black and audio was cut off. turned the power off the power supply but when I tried to turn it on again, the pc does turn on but it won't post and the keyboard doesn't light up anymore. I tried a few times and on one attempt it did boot up but only after a few minutes. After that, I shut it down to see if this was a one time thing but nope it wont post again. So I remvoved the power cable from the psu and waited like an hour before trying it and it worked completely fine after that. But I went to sleep last night and try to turn it on this morning and same thing happened. PC is powered on, LEDs, fans, and everything but wont post and peripherals wont light up like it should when turning on

Specs:
* Corsair VS650
* Ryzen 3 3200g
* MSI A320M-Pro
* 16GB RAM 26667MHZ DDR4
* Sapphire Pulse RX

My first guess would be the power supply. See if you can borrow one for troubleshooting.
