    • When I switch on my pc, can't power on, so I have to power off/on the switches before I can turn on. This happens everytime I turn on my pc. Can anyone advise me on which hardware is wearing down?

    • I'm facing a similar issue as yours for about half a year now, and I'm planning to swap out the power supply unit with a new one in the next few days. I'll be back to update this thread once I got to do so.

    • Swapped the power supply unit with a new one last night, and the issue persisted. Damn. I guess it's the motherboard that's causing the problem for me. Do note that it might be a different cause for your case though.

      Definitely not for me. This is my third graphics card running in my box ever since the problem existed.
