My computer had been running fine in a configuration for years. One day it suddenly shut down. When trying to turn back on, the CPU temp increases rapidly until it shuts down (within a minute or two of power on). I know this because I boot into the UEFI screen and can see the CPU temp increasing rapidly. I thought, oh the cooler must not be working. So I replaced it, with the same result. I thought, oh, that must mean the CPU is shot. I replaced it with a Ryzen 7 5800X, with no improvement. I thought it could be a power supply issue, so I tried a Corsair 850W power supply with the same result. I thought surely, this all must mean it is a motherboard issue. Yesterday I replaced that as well, and it still overheats and shuts off. It is almost a whole new computer, and it is still showing the same behavior. Someone please help me.
I have been building my computers for years and never had this much trouble.

That is a strange one.
It may be that the original PSU was damaged, then damaged other components (original CPU, original mobo, new CPU, etc) in the following way:
Certainly worth trying 1 DIMM at a time and a different GPU.
Let us know how it goes. Hopefully it's not the worst case scenario.
1 dimm at a time did the same thing for each dimm and so did the other graphics card.
Given all the information, my best guess is the "worst case scenario" I described previously.
Orig PSU damaged the orig mobo, orig CPU. New CPU was then damaged by orig PSU and orig mobo.
Last thing you could try would be replacing the RAM, but I kind of doubt it is the culprit.
This sounds like a dead AIO.
I see now you replaced it. My apologies.
How many degrees are we talking about, a rapid increase in temperature can happen...my CPU is at 55-60 degrees even after a few seconds, that's nothing unusual with a Ryzen. You changed the CPU cooler, the CPU cooler is correct Contact, have you removed the protective film from the radiator cap? thermal paste ok? bios reset.
Disassemble everything again, clean the thermal paste from the CPU and cooler and make sure again that it is installed correctly... new thermal paste, cooler on it. testing.
try it, if you still have thermal problems, I think the CPU cooler is faulty..

It increases 1-3 degrees C per second until it gets in the 90s and shuts off.
