I just assembled my back up PC with an Asus z77, i7 3770k and 1600mhz ddr3 and samsung ssd
All components are mine from a long time
The only thing new is a case nzxt s340 and a "refurbished" corsair ax750 from microcenter

Pc works fine but if I shutdown the pc and leave wall plug and button on, 10 hours later I can't turn on the Pc. Although power and reset lights on mb on meaning power is connected to motherboard.

I have to disconnect the power for some time to turn it on again

MB or power supply or win10?

I use win10 home

This would have nothing to do with the Windows Software, and is most likely an issue with the case? THe power button would simply invoke the boot up command. It would be hard to pin pojnt without doing some back tracing and trying to eliminate problems to narrow the scope. It could be a number of things.

By "does not turn on" do you mean it doesn't post? Does it not do anything?
