Recently my brother's PC is not posting. It will turn on and then turn off on its own without posting.

His specs are:

Ryzen 3 3200G
2x8GB RAM XPG 3200Mhz
RX 570
Corsair CV550

The PC was working fine a few days ago, this started yesterday. I tried with different RAM and I took off the GPU. Could it be that it needs fresh thermal paste?

I swapped CPUs between PCs to see if it was the issue but the 3200G posted perfectly on my PC

Might have been bad contact or any other reson that got fixed by taking out the cpu
