Mobo Asrock B250 Pro4 details available at the provided link. The system runs smoothly with 42GB RAM (2x8GB Teamskill, 2x16GB GSKILL SSDs), an Intel i5-7500, GTX 1060 graphics, and a 6GB PSU. ThermalTake SmartSE 530W has performed well over the past three years except for occasional power button issues—switched to the case reset button. Recently, after about five minutes of use, the PC started cycling through power states repeatedly and failed to boot normally. After checking everything—re-seating RAM, resetting CMOS, resetting BIOS, cleaning dust from fans and ports—I’m still unsure what’s wrong. I have exams soon and need a solution before they start. Any advice or fixes would be greatly appreciated.

I've contacted the supplier for most of my build. We've scheduled a visit for tomorrow to inspect it, since it looks like the board might still be covered under warranty for an RMA replacement. I'll keep you updated on everything. If not, I'll need to see how much this will cost me tomorrow...
