I started pulling out components to only make it run with the most basic components. One memory stick, unused HDD and SSD disconnected, backup GPU back in. When I finally got it to POST again I started putting components back in. Now all components are connected again and it POSTS again, just like when I started.Regarding the Linux internet issue, something that has saved me in the past is USB tethering from an Android device. Linux should detect it as a normal Ethernet connection.
It's really unstable though. After a while the whole computer just freezes, no BSOD or anything. sfc /scannow found problems but couldn't fix them so I tried a Windows reset (not a clean install) and it still freezes. I have a Linux partition which I'm gonna try, to make sure it's not a hardware problem, but unfortunately, I don't have internet on it. I don't have an ethernet cable, so I'm using a Wifi dongle, but Linux doesn't see it.
