Here are the PC parts in question (at the time of the problem occurred):
AMD Ryzen 5 5600x
16GB of DDR4 Ram Corsair Vengeance
Nvidia RTX 2070 8GB
Corsair TSX750M
Asus TUF Gaming B450M-PLUS II
Here is the small (hopefully summarization):
2-3 days ago, my PC would randomly go into this very strange mode where it went to "sleep" but moving the mouse, pressing the keys on the mouse/keyboard wouldn't wake it up, and after restarting the PC, it would restart on it's own after 5-10 minutes being able to use the PC normally, then it was "resolved" for about a day, then around 7-8 PM 2 days ago the PC would restart on it's own again, then 5-10 minutes thereafter it would go into this mode, resulting never posting again / booting.
Here is what I have done:
Swap out my GPU from RTX 2070 to Nvidia GeForce 970, still nothing.
Swapped out my TX750M to some "cheaper" PSU that I had in streaming PC, still nothing.
I have tried to downgrade the bios to the date when they first started supporting 5000 series CPU's, I have also tried to clear CMOS, take out the battery, and etc.
Another thing I have done is do really soft crypto mining, I did stress out the CPU/GPU, but it was still usable, and the crypto mining tool that I used was "NiceHash" - I also did soft overclock on Wraith cooler, nothing serious. But then I returned to default settings because I saw no reason to overclock when I have no experience with it, and I don't want to risk my PC breaking (which ended up happening anyways).
