Default Computer Doesn't Boot Sometimes? I think

I built a new computer just recently and started to have these minor problems lately. When I get home from work, I turn on my PC and it doesn't seem to bootup on the first try. I hear the HD and the fan and all that, but my monitor won't load up anything on the screen. I don't know if it's the monitor or if it's an actual hardware problem inside my PC.

I just turn it off by holding the shutoff button for a while and usually when I try to turn it back on the second or third try, it works fine and boots up. Everytime after that, it works fine.

It just seems like when I don't turn it on after a while, it doesn't bootup...

How can I troubleshoot this?

My specs:

Windows 7 Professional, 64-bit
ATI Radeon 4890
OCZ StealthXStream 700W
i5
Gigabyte UD4P
