Computer repeatedly turns on and off.

just to be sure, do the following:


run computer in the most basic level of necessary parts first outside of the computer:

this would be
Motherboard
Powersupply (connected to BOTH the cpu pin on the top left, as well as the 24 pin on the right)
ram(run 1 stick at first, only takes one to boot)
CPU


edit: ill be occasionally sitting in this thread refreshing till this gets somewhere.

Sadly, I did that already.

EDIT:

Here's what I've tried:

Standoffs - My case came pre-installed with these, and I doublechecked to make sure they were lined up with the motherboard.
4/8-pin CPU connector - Triple-checked that this was connected.
Running with the bare minimum.
Running without the case.
