Z170 Deluxe i7-6700k with 2133 16Gb Ram, Strix GTX 1080. After trying to overclock and adjusting settings, the PC stopped working after a while. It only spins fans and drives but doesn’t communicate with displays or input devices. USB ports charge when connected to my phone, but everything else seems to fail. The motherboard might be damaged, yet it still acts as a charging station. I’m not very technical, so thanks ahead of time.

Could you explain what occurred? I thought you had overclocked your PC and it wouldn’t turn on. You might want to reset the CMOS, which should resolve the problem without cost. It seems your issue didn’t damage any parts.

I've noticed a problem with the motherboard following an unsuccessful overclock; the CMOS clearing isn't resolving it. I think replacing it would be the best option.
