I've been using this PC for some time (https://pcpartpicker.com/list/crXbDj) and it occasionally fails to power on. When I press the power button, either on the case or the motherboard, the LED lights come on and the RGB memory near the CPU socket also activates, but the system doesn't start up. Holding the power button for 5-10 seconds causes the lights to fade out, then turning it back on results in the same issue. If I disconnect the PSU, all lights disappear until I reset it, and this keeps happening. Replacing the CMOS battery or swapping cables hasn't helped. It seems the power supply might be failing. The motherboard could also be the problem. If I decide to replace the whole system, I’d probably build a new one and try to figure out the issue later, maybe selling it for parts. Right now, my drives and GPU would likely remain functional.
