I recently built a PC and everything is working well. The only issue I have is if I shut down the computer my motherboard goes into "standby" and I have to physically press the power button on the motherboard to turn it back on. The motherboard I have is the Gigabyte Gaming 7 z170x. Any advice would be great, thanks.

Have you connected the powerbutton properly,most motherboards go into standby even when the computer is off so users can still charge their usb devices.As for turning it on through the motherboard powerbutton,that should not be the case.
