I pressed the power button and nothing, no lights or anything. My machine had been running great, until I went to switch it on today. To play it safe, I thought I'd buy a little more expensive power supply than I normally would (Seasonic Prime TX-750) - 'it shouldn't have any issues now', I thought to myself. I just built my new machine last weekend based around a Ryzen 3950x/Gigabyte X570 Aorus Master combo. So, I found this forum because of this thread, and I want to say thank you to cold_steel for your post - you just saved me a night or more of grief! It's fortunate that this wasn't the case for you, and you figured it out, but I could see a lot of users trying this repeatedly, and eventually damaging something more difficult to replace than the power supply. Checking for this with a multimeter would be a good idea if you're having this issue, before you just keep trying the power button and blasting the motherboard with (potentially) a gazillion amps of current draw. This behavior where you get nothing when hitting the power button is often a sign that you have a dead short to ground through some part of the system - most likely the motherboard or graphics card. I stand by what I said below though, in that in most cases, if you're seeing this behavior, one of the most likely reasons is a short to ground through something major, and you should rule this out before you get much further into troubleshooting, so that you don't unwittingly damage something else. IРІР‚в„ўve altered the title of the thread slightly to reflect this.Р”В®dit: I have been asked by the OP to amend this post to underscore the idea that, in the case of this specific board (and perhaps other similar Gigabyte boards?), the solution to this problem is apparently to pull the CMOS battery for a few seconds. Always learning with this hobby!Р”В®dit- My intent was never to suggest that this procedure is a permanent fix for the problem- this post was put up to help others at least get their boards up and running again to avoid an RMA in the hopes that Gigabyte can fix this with a BIOS update. Will probably keep the new ASUS PSU as the AX860i is at least 5 years old - and now I have a good spare again for testing. I checked and I do have the latest BIOS from Gigabyte as of this post - F11. Hopefully this helps someone out in a similar situation. Well guess what - tonight's frustration with Corsair was misguided - after trying the battery removal the system immediately booted on the next power button press, and is now running totally normally. &^^&* still not booting!Р”Вid another Google search about that board and a no power on condition and this time found a thread on Reddit where a few folks had a similar situation and physically removed the CMOS battery for 15 seconds then reinserted - board resurrected.

Get home, rip PC apart and try out new PSU. I was pissed at Corsair PSUs at the moment so I didn't even consider them TBH.

I'm thinking, there went my Corsair replacement PSU, and I go off to Microcenter to get something new. Removed pretty much everything but RAM and CPU, cleared CMOS, still no response to power button. Fiddled around with things for a while and realized if I left my PSU unplugged for about 5 mins and then plugged it back in, the onboard power button on the motherboard would glow, but as soon as you touch it, it would go black again. Tonight when I came home from work I went to power on my system.

PSU Corsair sent me as a replacement in 2015 was still running strong, so I retained it. RMA'd the PSU with Corsair, fixed the issue.Р”Р„bout a month ago, I revamped my system with a Ryzen 3900X / Gigabyte X570 Aorus Master combo. System would power on for a few seconds, then shut off in a loop. So backstory - A few years ago (like, 2015 maybe) I had a Corsair AX860i power supply crap out in my i7 6700K / Gigabyte Z170 Gaming 7 build. Thought I'd share just in case this can help someone else Well guys, I've had a frustrating AF night.
