Alright, here’s a revised version of your text:

So essentially, I had a computer with a big H110M-H-CF chipset, 1.0 GHz RAM, 8 GB Intel Pentium G4560, GTX 1070, and a 550W power supply. It was a case from Comtech Tech 550W. I replaced the PSU and installed a new graphics card—Centauro 60W 80 Bronze—and the original PSU. I didn’t do any BIOS setup or anything else. After plugging in the new PSU and turning it on, I expected it to work but it just wouldn’t power up. After some troubleshooting, I replaced the PSU completely and installed the new graphics card. When I tried to connect the keyboard and mouse, there was no display at all. Later, I discovered the 4-pin connector wasn’t connected properly. Turning it on produced five beeps, then I restarted and turned it off repeatedly. Eventually, after taking the PC apart, I found a CPU error. We removed the CPU, tried turning it on without any sound, tightened the case, and heard the five beeps again. After putting the metal cover back on, it worked. But my motherboard seems damaged—no display or any functionality at all. I’ve tried everything from swapping the battery to re-seating components, but nothing helps. Please help!

You definitely didn’t require a 600W power supply. Plus, pairing a GTX 1070 with an Intel Pentium won’t take you very far.

It seems it's time for a complete upgrade. CPU, motherboard, RAM—keep the 1070 since it's a solid GPU. If you choose this path, others can assist with new builds and planning in the forum.

In short, I attempted the fix with the original PSU but decided to upgrade instead.
