Yeah, I've popped nearly everything out. The weird thing is that it starts all the fans for <1s and then the power LED blinks like it's in sleep mode.
My guess is a power failure of some sort, or some self protection system firing. Examples: a short circuit or excessive power drain; voltage incorrect; the CPU fan not functioning, or otherwise the thermal protection of the CPU activating (for example, because the heat sink is loose or heat compound bad). Heating on the PSU itself (damaged component). That on the "bad" side. It could be as simple as the "sleep" contact been permanently on the sleep position.
Am I forgiven my transgressions against the List??
