Okay I'm not sure where to post this, but this started with my graphics card removal.

So I shut my system down properly, turned off the PSU and unplugged my GPU, removed it, and took it apart to clean it thoroughly. All fine and well.

Put it back together and turned the system on and saw no post, okay.... Saw I left the GPU unplugged from the power cable. Whoops. I hastely plugged it in (with the system still on lmaoo whoops again) still no post, seems normal so I shut it down and turned it back on.

Now: I'll get the screen saying system shut down improperly press F1 for bios yadada but there shouldn't be anything changed in the bios. Save n exit, turn back on and it's just sitting on the Asus loading screen.

I turn on and off numerous more times, same thing, loading screen or it tells me the system was improperly powered off go into bios. I even defaulted bios settings to no avail. What's going on here?

Don't be surprised if the GPU begins to act up. You're advised to make any and/or all necessary connections to your devices while it's powered down. Might've even fried the motherboard in the process.

Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model.
