    Question Wondering if i fried my new motherboard by flipping the "power sw" connector or by not using the standoffs

    gtx 1650S No i have not tried that. But can a person know the one responsible for damaging the product if there was no sign ? I didn't see any light spark, i didn't smell any fumes nor was there any burning marks on the case.
