Hi everyone,
I am having some issue with my 6-year-old PC I can't seem to pinpoint.
As per title, since the other day, my computer has decided it could stop turning on. When I try to turn it on, literally nothing happens. And even when plugged in with the switch on, I get no life signs from the mobo. I thought initially it could be an issue with either the PSU or the mobo, but the strange - at least within my knowledge - thing is that I have power from the USB ports both on the case and on the mobo.
Before posting here, I did some troubleshooting:
For what it's worth, no power surge or pretty much anything else took place, and the computer wasn't even moved. Here are the major components of my configuration:

Before posting here, I did some troubleshooting:
- Tried a different socket and power cable
- Paperclip test on the PSU (and the PSU seems to work)
- Removed the CMOS battery, waited a bit and re-inserted it
- Tried booting without the GPU
- Disassembled and re-assembled most of the PC, checking for contacts and loosened cables
For what it's worth, no power surge or pretty much anything else took place, and the computer wasn't even moved. Here are the major components of my configuration:
- Intel i7 7700k
- NZXT Kraken x53 AIO Liquid Cooling
- Aorus GA-Z270X-Gaming 5
- Vengeance 16GB RAM
- Geforce MSI 1080
- EVGA 750 80 plus gold
