I woke up this morning and tried turning on my pc and I wasn't getting any display, my pc was working just fine the night before. Last thing I was doing before turning the pc off was watching TWD, didn't touch BIOS settings or anything.
Things i have tried:

  1. Resetting CMOS battery
  2. Try booting up with 1 stick of ram
  3. Use a different GPU ( I tried using my old GPU and nothing LED on no display)
  4. Trying inserting GPU on different PCIe slot
  5. Try to see if i get any display on another monitor
  6. Swap psu cables
PSU is new (3 months old) and cables seem fine to me and they are properly connected. Other than the VGA light PC seems to post just fine, I don't have onboard graphics to actually check.

Components:

  • RYZEN 7 2700X
  • MOBO: MSI B450 PRO CARBON AC
  • 6900XT/ RX 580 8G(OLD GPU)
  • RAM: Corsair Vengeance Pro
  • PSU: EVGA Supernova 850gt
 
One of the following, or all of them are dead: CPU, MoBo, RAM.

Here, you'd need 2nd, compatible PC, where to test out each and every component individually, to see what died.
If you don't have 2nd compatible PC and/or doesn't want the ordeal of hardware testing, haul it to PC repair shop and pay them for diagnostics and fix.
Probability of what is dead: MoBo - likely, RAM - maybe, CPU - unlikely.
 
I don't have a 2nd PC to test my components out, I tried only booting it up with the newest sticks i bought (3 months old) and nothing. This is so unfortunate, how does my mobo suddenly die?
