So my pc was randomly powering off my monitors. So no tests were showing issues with my cpu or gpu. I figured I'd get inside and clean out my case. I changed the thermal paste and it booted up fine.

Then it just powered off. Now it powers on runs a bit then turns back off. Do you guys think its my cpu or psu causing the issue?

Every time that has happened to me, it has been my PSU failing. Replacing that always worked.

Considering you just change the thermal paste and it shutting on and off like this it could be that its overheating and just going into emergency shut off. You may want to check and make sure that the paste is on correctly and its seated correctly

check if your GPU fans are working. my old build would randomly restart/crash to black and i had no idea why until one day i had the computer case open and i was laying on the floor looking up at it. i never noticed the GPU fans weren't spinning, overheating, and crashing everything.

this is what it was. The connector for the cpu fan wasnt working and it was shutting down. i just reseated it and it worked.
