Hey guys i've run into quite the problem with my PC :/

My computer won't start. I can't see any LED's or hear anything when i press the power button.
I usualy unplug the socket, with the whole setup from the outlet when i go to sleep. To save a bit of power and to turn off the LED's in the moniters when i sleep. Then some weeks ago the computer would only turn on after i had tried replugging it a couple of times. And now it can't start no matter what i do.
I've tried:
- changeing the outlet
- changing the socket
- tried draining the system of power
- doublechecket that everything was turned on and plugged in firmly

But nothing has worked so far, so what do you guys think is the problem? The PSU or some other component in my system, or could it be that the "power button" is broken?

Heres a list of all my build:
Case: In Win 703 Midi Tower
Mother Board: MB Intel 1150 ASRock H97 Pro4
CPU: Intel Core i5-4460, Socket-LGA1150
GPU: MSI GeForce GTX 970 Gaming 4GB
RAM: Crucial DDR3 8GB 1600-9 BX Sport
Storage: Seagate Barracuda® 1TB & Samsung 850 EVO 250GB SSD
PSU: EVGA PowerSupply SuperNOVA G1 Gold 650W

Are any of the components know for failing or working poorly?

Either way, i appreciate the help and hope you can help me fix this :)

//UPDATE
Hey everybody now i've finally figured it out, i sent the computer in for check. The guys i sent it in to performed a "Hard Reset" where they drained the motherboards power completely and cleared the memory. And it worked, so now everything is up and running. Thanks for the reply’s and hope this helps!
 
Could be the power button, seen it before more than once. That is an easy test - just use a screw driver as a momentary switch (bridge the pin outs with the screw driver for a second). If it was the power button though, you'd have motherboard power LEDs on when you plugged it in.

Could be the PSU's starting circuit, again, that should either force your PC on or never turn on - either way you'd still have mobo power LEDs usually.

Finally it could be that the PSU is just bad. You wouldn't get any kind of activity if that was the case.

I don't think its anything further down the line that that TBH - if it was your mobo you'd get some kind of activity, lights, beeps, fans, etc.
 
Connect the power
switch, reset switch and
system status indicator on
the chassis to this header
according to the pin
assignments below. Note
the positive and negative
pins before connecting
the cables.

The front panel design may differ by chassis. A front panel module mainly consists
of power switch, reset switch, power LED, hard drive activity LED, speaker and etc.
When connecting your chassis front panel module to this header, make sure the wire
assignments and the pin assignments are matched correctly

your psu is not a good rated one ...try with a friend s psu

 




Sorry for the long wait... I've Just recived my PSU after sending it in for a test, and there should be nothing wrong with it.
I've tried to bridge the pins and it didnt do anything either... Now ill try one last time assembling it and testing the pins and cabels. And if there is still no sign of life i'll assume it would be the mobo somehow. Or could it be the CPU?? :/
