PC did not boot until after I hit reset button

My pc did not want to boot today, never happened before. Every fan and light was on but no picture ever appeared on screen. The white LED light on the mobo was on, it stopped in its usual color cycling. I hit the reset button, not knowing what else to do and the pc booted. I have turned it back on and off several times and it seems to boot. (Restarts, full shutdowns and unplugging it for 10 min or so.) I can enter the bios and there was nothing unusual in the error log. What should I do now?

My pc:
Phanteks Eclipse P400 Glass
Gainward GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER Phoenix GS
Intel Core i7-9700F
Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO DDR4 2933MHz 16GB
Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1TB SSD
ASUS ROG Strix B365-F GAMING, Socket-1151
ASUS ROG Strix 650, 750W PSU
Windows 10 Pro

Make an image backup to an external disk! This will protect your data in case there is something really wrong with the PC.

Hopefully you had a one off glitch and the PC will continue as normal. If it doesn’t you have the data saved so you can troubleshoot without worrying.
