3 days ago, I unplugged my PC to give it a clean. After plugging it back in, there was no power whatsoever. No LEDS, fans etc.
I tried resetting CMOS, taking the battery out for 10-15 seconds’ish, checking all cables etc.
Eventually, I tried once again plugging all my cables plugged into my pc externally and it turned on. Once it’s on, it’s completely fine, it can shut down and turn on again no problem. But I noticed that my bios has been reset and the time was wrong.
After doing some testing, it seems when I unplug my PSU from the power cable and then put it back in, the same issue occurs, the PC doesn’t turn back on but eventually will if I keep unplugging it and plugging it back in, and the bios is reset again. It can take 10 minutes, an hour, 2 hours etc.
What could this be?
It's worth noting that I had a technician test my PSU when he was diagnosing the PC and he said the PSU passes all his checks so it works completely fine. He put the issue down to a "motherboard short" but shortly after he left, the PC turned back on.
I've only had the motherboard for less than a year so I would be shocked if its anything related to it.
