Hey everyone! I recently built a gaming PC with my dad and brother, but we're having trouble getting it to power on. My dad thinks it might be a power supply issue, even though I have a 650W PSU and I've plugged everything in correctly. Here's a list of my components if that helps:
- GPU: GIGABYTE Radeon RX 7600 XT Gaming OC 16G
- SSD #1: Silicon Power 1TB UD90 NVMe 4.0 Gen4 PCIe M.2
- Case: Montech X3 Mesh with 6 RGB fans
- RAM: TEAMGROUP T-Force Vulcan Z DDR4 32GB
- CPU Cooler: ICOLER AK400 WH
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X
- Motherboard: MSI B550M PRO-VDH WiFi ProSeries
- PSU: Corsair CX650M (650W, Modular, 80+ Bronze)
- SSD #2: Silicon Power 2TB UD90 NVMe 4.0 Gen4 PCIe M.2
I'd really appreciate any advice on what I might be missing!

Yeah, 650W should be more than enough for your build. Just make sure that the PSU switch is on and all connections are snug. It could also be a case of a misconnected power switch, so double-check those pins on your motherboard!
Your components should technically work together. Make sure to double-check all your power connections and that the front panel power button is properly plugged into the motherboard. Also, verify that the PSU switch at the back is turned on. When you press the power button, you should see the fans spin. If nothing happens, the power supply might be faulty. Good luck!
