Hey guys. About 6 months ago I was posting pretty often here getting help with a computer build. Eventually I got it put all together after having found out I received faulty RAM. After fixing that I no longer had any issues with the system (it had exceeded my expectations) until recently.
About a month ago I noticed that sometimes when I would shut the computer down through the start menu it would power back on shortly afterwards. Usually I would just press the button down and leave it at that. I figured that was not a good sign but didn't think much about it. Thought it may have been a windows 8 issue or something. Then today it seems like it is not getting power at all.
I left the room the computer was in with the computer in sleep mode. I hadn't messed with it for the day, but I don't usually cut it off until I'm ready for bed. I was gone for about an hour. When I came back and attempted to wake the computer up I noticed that it had no power at all. I immediately started to panic, and I unplugged the power cord from the computer and the wall. I tested it again plugged into a different wall and I'm not getting any signs that the computer is receiving power. There is no attempt to boot, no lights, etc. To be honest I'm so much in shock that I'm not really sure where to go from here. None of the parts are old at all. I didn't really have any warning. The only things I know to suspect at all are the power supply and the motherboard. Can anyone help me with where to go from here? I'm not sure how to tell which part(s) are dead.
Edit: Sorry. Forgot to post my build. Here it is:
