Hi,
I have a 2yr old system with a asus z170 sabertooth mark 1 motherboard. It reached a state where it wouldn't power-on. Seemed like it was a bad case power switch at the time (about a month ago).
So I switched the guts into a new case (330r blackout edition /corsair carbide)
Now, it's acting up again. Mobo has solid power LED, but board powers up only intermittently. I've used a straight jumper on the pwr switch pins, which worked, then didn't work etc. De-energizedthe mobo, tried all combinations etc.
When it powers on the system runs perfectly. I've never seen this before. I can only assume a flaky motherboard? Time for RMA or is there something I haven't thought of?? I could try a new powersupply I suppose?
Thanks,
