I don't think overclocking your RTX 2080 Super was even necessary. It depends how much you actually overclocked though.

Your graphics card could be dead. How much did you overclock the voltage and the rest?
Remove GPU and try to boot.

If it will, uninstall or default the Afterburner profile.

Reinstall and see if it will work.

I have not run into a situation where Afterburner would actually LET me set a condition in which the system would not operate. Usually the slider will just roll back.
 
its possible gpu died due to overclock, its also possible that psu killed your gpu

Will give it a shot shortly and update post. I had the pc wires installed by a PC shop. Is it possible they didnt connect a wire correctly on mobo and it caused an electricity problem ?
