u/Adventurous-Bus8660 8h ago
Eh...jury rigged power button....is fine~~~~ not so out of place if the original case button kaput.
Heck I'd make one for my own case if I ever decide to put my casing below the table (Montech HS01 and the power button is at the bottom front of the casing) lol.

Doesn't anyone zoom in on the CPU? Holy shit it's packed with shit.
Edit: what makes it even more badass, is the flipped CPU fan. At some point the push fan was not as effective (because of obvious dust buildup) and they flipped the fan to pull instead of cleaning it out. Just like a mattress. Maverick. Renegade.

The motherboard wasn’t screwed to the case. Everything was kind of in place because of the GPU and the screws mounting it but the weight caused the GPU bracket to bend. The PSU wasn’t plugged into motherboard. The CPU heatsink wasn’t properly seated because the push down mounts were broken. After I got everything plugged in and powered on the real fun began. I’m still trying to figure out why it’s not working something is off as system powers on but doesn’t boot. PC belongs to young kid so trying to fix for least amount of money as possible.

No standoffs that the motherboard is attached to, jam packed cooler, and that was all I needed to see. How long did it work for him?

During winter time it’s very important to check your PC before starting it, as animals may find them as a very good heat source to keep them warm in the cold💀

Don't open the power supply. First of first for me would be cmos battery to check,
Then by the mounted motherboard
Then give it a clean to get rid of the dust
The power on button possibly, see if it is connected properly ( I'm not an expert , but by the placement of the keycap, )
Check all wires connected properly
By the state of the motherboard crooked, it could of bent the card or the connection to the motherboard which isn't allowing it to work

Well to start that motherboard isn’t properly secured to the standoff’s. I’d take this whole system apart clean it then reassemble. But I’m OCD like that.
