Before any further troubleshooting can be done you need to correctly clean off the old and reapply a fresh amount of thermal compound, this to avoid frying your CPU, let us know if/when you have done this + if you are using one of the MBs integrated video ports or an add on video card, if an add on video card, post the brand and model name or number of any add on video card and the same for the PSU (power supply unit).

This is a must as once thermal compound has been exposed to the atmosphere it must be used straight away and once the thermal compound has been used on a processor it must be properly cleaned off and an appropriate amount reapplied.
Edit to add, if you can get thermal compound that does not come with any cleaning agent, it quite often works out to be less expensive to purchase rubbing alcohol like the example here better still if you already have some in the medical cabinet
Tip
If using a computer and not a mobile phone, please avoid adding multiple posts while waiting for us to reply to your last, edit your last post to include anything that you wish to add, this will ensure nothing gets overlooked which can sometimes happen if a thread has more than one page.

The above should have been posted after my reply #26 eemil, you only use the edit tab if you want to add something to your last post when we have not replied to your last post, we don`t get notifications when a post has been edited only when it has been replied to, does this explain things a bit better.
In answer to your question, cannot say with 100% certainty but not suspecting the CPU as the cause, need the CPU correctly prepared, thermal compound re-applied, the heatsink fitted securely and the CPU cooling fan connected to the right header on the MB before we go any further, post back when each has been done and please do not do anything else first, we will guide you from here once the aforementioned steps have been done.
