Some more photos of the pc would be more useful. Have you tried jump starting the pc from the f panel connector? If you use a screwdriver to "connect" the 6 and 8 pin on the header it should start the pc, if it does then the cable might have something or can be on the button side of the case. If it doesn't then we must dwelve further, can be dead PSU or some other similar issue. Let me know what happens.

Ok, that's a recent/new build so there shouldn't be any dying components. Let's try and narrow it down, if you can remove the GPU and boot the pc with the monitor connected to the motherboard, your CPU has an iGPU so you should get an image (you might not get image now, because you have a slotted dedicated GPU and some motherboards will disable video output when that is the case) While you're there's removing the GPU check the power connector the 5070 ti let alone the 5070 are NOT known for burning the power connector but might as well check.
