I hadn't used my PC in a few weeks, but yesterday was patch day on Final Fantasy XIV so I booted her up and was able to play all day with no issues. When I exited the game to the desktop, however, I noticed there was a sort of green digitization all over the screen and everything was unresponsive. When I restarted nothing happened. The monitor wakes up but doesn't display anything (not even the motherboard splash screen) but the lights on my mouse and keyboard come on. I unplugged the HDMI from the GPU and plugged it directly into the MOBO and the same thing happened, making me think it's not a GPU issue. I swapped the PSU and GPU into my old computer (an i5-2500k build) and the same thing is happening, making me think it's not the motherboard or CPU. Could it be the PSU? Any ideas? Here are my specs:
EVGA GTX 1070 FTW (fairly new as I just had it replaced under warranty)
Ryzen 5 (don't remember the exact model)
Gigabyte GA-AX370 Gaming 5 motherboard
EVGA G2 750w PSU
EDIT: I put my old GPU (an EVGA GTX 680) in the old i5 build and it booted up no issue. I'll replace everything back into my newer Ryzen build with the old 680 card and see what happens.
