    Turn PC on remotely through USB/ remote when it is completely off?


    I built a gaming PC with an MSI Z690 board, eventually i will move to my newly built house which will have a false wall for all my entertainment gear and i wanted the ability to turn the pc on when its off through an alternative method that isnt the power button

    I know you can wake it with a keyboard if suspended but i wanted to reduce power consumption as much as possible since i have several other gaming systems i might not use the PC all the time

    For the other devices i have, my logitech remote will allow me to power those through the false wall prob using an IR extender

    What other devices? If you're referring to home entertainment like smart TV for example, the remote is not turning the device on/off, it's simply going through a device-equivalent of the computer sleep/hibernate state. Your computer will probably have to be the same.
