Hello, recently i built my first pc with the components i bought. I installed everything correctly managed to launch pc succesfully installed windows, drivers and it worked perfectly. After 4-5 days it started to act weird, when i press the power button, for just 2-3 seconds it turns on ( i can see fans start spinning) but then it resets the power, waitin 1-2 secs before turning on again. Then it usually boots perfectly with no problems at all... I am wondering what might cause this problem, i know that every part of pc can cause such problems but if you know similiar problem with my setup i would really appreciate any fix or suggestions.
My components;
Asus Maximus VI Hero [Bios V0903]
Intel i7-4770K
ASUS GTX 680 DirectCUII OC 2GB
1xCorsair Vengeance 1600MHZ [On 3rd slot]
Aftermarket Cooling [Hyperion something not sure right know]
An Intel SSD for System and A Samsung HDD for Backup & Storage
700Watt Thermaltake PSU

Here is more info i think might be helpful;
There is a 8 pin connector for my cpu on motherboard but i only plugged in one 2x2pin connector. My Psu has 2 2x2 connectors and i am unsure if i can also plug those. This is another question that i would like to get an answer as i suspect this might be causing trouble. I didn't oc my Video Card and sure it is not faulty (Used it before this system). My Cpu isn't also OCed it runs at stock speed 3.5Ghz with 3.8Ghz Turbo. i have 3 case fans connected to individual CHA_FAN headers and my Cpu Fan on CPU_FAN header. To note i have 3(4?) USB devices connected to my pc; 1 For my G300 Mouse, 1 For my G430 Headset, 2 For my G710+Keyboard [1 for keyboard itself and 1 for usb passthrough on keyboard] and also a normal connected speaker. I use VGA connection and i think it is irrelavent to the situvation. To minimize possibility of a problem, i disabled every fast boot option. I don't have any CD/DVD/etc drivers.
