No fans are on including the PSU fan, EZ debug lights are off.Below are my spec

It sounds like your power button isn't plugged in correctly, if your BIOS flashback button turned on the PC. Have you checked to make sure you can turn on the PC by touching a screwdriver to the power headers on the corner of the motherboard?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Jumpstarting it doesn't work. But the pc worked perfectly before I turned it off, so i don't think mobo is the problem

Since the PC can turn on, what happens when you put windows to sleep, then press the power button to wake it up?

It is fixed now. Me being an idiot plugged the power button into the wrong spot. Thanks a lot for the help
