If I were there it will be easy. But since we are not with you and we cannot see your components, it will be hard to give you specific instructions like connecting a disc to a SATA port or M.2 port.
Different hardware, like a motherboard, might have a different layout depending on model...etc...etc.

First you should Troubleshoot basic errors like.. Cleaning RAM slot, Cleaning Power connectors.. Cleaning GPU... Clearing BIOS.. and then if your PC didn't boot.. then you should consider something else wrong..

And CPU won't die like this.. they just go instantly dead with power cycling..

Ya I have cleaned everything had the air gun in there no a spec of dust in it, I have plugged the hdmi into the motherboard aswell and still no picture so I'm guessing it could be the mobo now

What kind of issues are you facing? Power cycling or blank screen.. have you tried removing CMOS battery?? Try this.. also..

Just no bios coming up, have removed battery for awhile and even seen a YouTube video to use paper clip to touch the two cmos pins on the motherboard to reset but nothing from that either, as it stands all thats in my computer is the cpu thr mobo and 1 stick of ram, and all that's connect is the 24pin to the motherboard and power to the cpu

Try to reseat the CPU, try to boot without any Drives plugged in.. try without GPU installed.. and if you have multimeter.. test your PSU voltages at the output..

I still have had no luck this week bought a new heatsink but that didn't solve it, been searching Google for days now, but something I have noticed and read a little it about is that my dram led light is on? It goes from cpu led for 1second then stays on dram led

The motherboard appears to be working if it shows debugging LED lights.
If the DRAM LED light is one, then it is either the RAM, CPU or a RAM socket.

Power of the system, turn off PSU.
Remove the CMOS battery ...wait 5 minutes and place the CMOS battery back.
Remove the RTX 2070.
Place only a RAM module on socket A2 (4th from CPU).
Connect your display cable to the back of the on the motherboard.
Power the PC and see if you are able to enter the BIOS.

Try the above steps with each RAM module if unsuccessful.
If successful then place the other matching RAM module on socket B2 (2nd from CPU)

If you all tried all RAM modules on socket A2 (4th from CPU) and the issue remain, try other RAM sockets.

Moving the motherboard back and forth could have damaged or dislocated something.
Going thru each step might narrowed it down.
I don't think, you tried the steps using each RAM module. You posted right back and I have done that and it does take a bit longer.
Have you done a visual inspection of the motherboard CPU and RAM sockets for bent pins.

Its been nearly 2/3 weeks since it crashed i have tried every piece of ram several times in each different slot, its even been into a computer store which was no help what so ever I eventually took it back off them after 3 days cause they could understand it either they tried different ram and new psu....my motherboard is brand new so there no pins bend in the ram sockets, a week or so before it crashed I was getting some overheating warnings so I then changed the heatsink and got it working then a few days later finally crashed maybe the damaged had been done? I have a new i7 coming either tomorrow or Wednesday so at least I'll know for sure then because that will be a brand new cpu and mobo and heatsink so surely would have to be ram then, but im hoping its the cpu seen as a new one is coming
