It's 5 or 6 years old, a lot of people recommended it to me.
What panel sorry?
Do you have a link to the PSU?
Is it Lite or Standard GX?
The GX are poorer quality PSUs, the only top quality PSUs Cooler Master make can be the V series and some MasterWatt Maker variants from my understanding.
For example, the GX only carry a 3-5 year warranty and you can tell a lot about the quality of a PSU by it's warranty.
Anything 3 years and less is concerning and I would probably never touch myself.
Anything 5 years and less is decent enough, but sometimes questionable.
Then you'll have some of the best that can be around 7 to 10+ years.
The front panel is where the front case buttons connect to your motherboard, basically if you have a faulty switch, a button could be powering the computer up again. You'd need to disconnect the case front panel wiring from the MB and turn on the MB manually.
