Hey guys,
I just want to know if there are any lLEDs on my ASUS PRIME H610M-E D4 mobo.
I just want to know that when I switch on at power socket but don't switch on my PC, is there any LED feedback from mobo that indicates the PSU supply is ok.

My previous mobo, an ASUS M5A78L indicated that the PSU power is on by an orange LED on the motherboard.
 
what do you mean psu supply is ok? is your system not working?
System is working fine but I want to know if the psu fail how can I understand without opening that it's not working. Is there any onboard led that indicates that PSU power is ok. As my previous mobo had that kind of led.

Those are next to useless for troubleshooting because there are literary over dozen of power inputs from PSU to MB and if any one of them fails MB will not be able to start. At best it could be an indicator that MB is energized.

As far as I'm concerned, if the motherboard has only one LED, it's simply a reminder not to plug or unplug any DIMMs, PCIe cards, or the CPU because the board is still "live". The LED doesn't indicate the health of all the whole PSU.

Frequently, the LED is connected to the auxiliary +5VSB Standby supply rail, which is probably limited to around 3A output.

The presence of +5VSB does not imply all the other rails are OK. Your power supply might have a fault on a +12V rail, but still illuminate a green or red LED on +5VSB.

If you want to monitor the health of your PSU, a few up-market units have built in displays or have digital outputs.
