It seems you were checking to confirm the power down function works consistently.
I would imagine I can still power it on even without a GPU, there wouldn't be any display out but I could still see fan spin/lights. And yeah I can, but I need my other pc for work i haven't had the time to pull it out yet.
You're likely to face fan problems even if the CPU is fine. If fans aren't working, the issue probably lies with the motherboard or power supply unit. As mentioned, trying another PSU could help identify the problem.
I will verify the 24-pin connection to confirm all pins are intact, inspect the cable and motherboard side ports, and ensure no pins are missing.
Some pins may not be fully locked into the connector, causing unusual actions and/or unstable connections. Intermittent power issues might occur. You can also briefly test the power source using a paper clip to verify it powers on correctly.
I'd look into verifying or swapping the cables connecting the PSU to the mainboard. It seems one pin might not be securely connected.
