Hello, I'm experiencing issues with my power button. It often requires more than one press to turn on the PC, sometimes needing two or three, and it feels inconsistent. From what I found online, this could be related to the PSU. My current setup uses a NZXT H710 case with an ASRock X570 motherboard running a Ryzen 7 5800X. Do you have any advice on possible causes?

Might be only part of the front panel connector failing. This doesn’t seem like a PSU problem at all.

I would first check if the power switch is defective. Remove the power switch from the motherboard and use a screwdriver or another metal tool to connect the power pins together. If it activates each time by connecting them, then the power switch is likely faulty.

I'll give it a shot. I'm confident it will work. Thanks!
