So I have the nzxt noctis 450 case with the gigabyte gaming z170-x motherboard, I built it over 3 months ago, no problems. Since about a week ago my power button has stopped working. I have the 2 large power connectors from the psu into the motherboard and the pwr switch and +_ p led things in.. What?? What's wrong. Sometimes I switch power off and on and for a brief second I can turn it on and it will power up. I also have a problem where when it actually does turn on the leds and PC itself boots for 2 seconds stops for 5 seconds then boots successfully. Thanks
 
Solution
the power switch is bad on the case I have seen it happen a bunch of times on the nzxt brand case you will have to replace the switch.
As a temp fix you can use a power switch from a old dell or hp till you gat a new one from nzxt.
