Cant find what is the issue with my PC

Hi everyone, I’m trying to diagnose a problem with my PC and would appreciate some advice.
My setup:
Motherboard: ECS H110M4-C43
CPU: Intel Core i3-7100
RAM: 8GB DDR4
GPU: MSI GTX 1070 Ti 8GB
PSU: Normal 500W
Windows 10
The problem
The PC started having a no display issue.
When I press the power button:
CPU fan spins
GPU fans spin
Keyboard lights turn on
Monitor says No Signal
The PC seems to be in a partially booted state
If I press the power button again, it sometimes turns off immediately rather than needing to be held down

But if I keep trying to turn off and on the CPU, it gets display and works after around 4 or 5 times turning on and off.

I removed the GPU and tried to turn on and its still the same, I also notice whenever I turn on the cpu, it turns on then automatically turns off again and then turns on and then the display works.

This has been going for a week now, today it turned on after I removed the GPU.

I am confused as what might causing the problem.

My monitor has horizontal lines

My monitor(Dell S2421hgf) has horizontal lines. Is there any good shops to fix this and how much will the cost be. If I use this continuously will this get much worse.

P.s lines disappear after like 5 mins.

Ryzen 5 9600X + ASRock A620I: fans spin, no display, no beep. Need a place that can swap-test AM5 parts (Colombo)

TL;DR: Looking for a shop to help. My AM5 build stopped POSTing. Fans come on and stay on, black screen, no beep, no boot loop. I've done everything I can with the parts I own and I don't have a second AM5 platform to swap into. Looking for (a) a shop or individual in Colombo who will actually bench-test components, and (b) sanity checks on my diagnosis before I spend on a replacement board/part.

The build

Part Model
CPU Ryzen 5 9600X
Motherboard ASRock A620I Lightning WiFi (AM5 mini-ITX) — roughly 1 year old
RAM G.Skill Flare X5 32GB (2×16GB) DDR5-6000 CL36, EXPO enabled
GPU Gigabyte RTX 5070 WINDFORCE OC SFF 12G
Storage Samsung 990 EVO Plus 1TB NVMe + a second NVMe
Case DeepCool CH160
PSU PSU SFX unit — appears to work, but never definitively tested

I am just interested in RAM/CPU/Motherboard tests as I have an AM4 build I can check the other stuff with.

Edit: Was hoping for shop suggestions as the enthusiast shops of yore like Redline and Nanotek have grown and this sort of business doesn't really make sense for them.

Looking for AM4. X3D Cpus. Where should I buy them?

Anyone know a good place to buy them? I'm looking for Ryzen 5 5500x3d. Prefer to buy brand new .

Went to a shop, they claimed it was brand new but had thermal paste residue. I'm near colombo area.
