ok check for loose wiring, and if possible, change another power cable.

if u upgrade ur build recently or planning to upgrade, won't be under power?

underpower....is the pc will hang or bsod..... u encounter these?

if totally dead..... and the case fans are connected directly to psu..... most likely is psu.

ur current pc only draw like 650 watts x 89% = below 578.5 watts

When I off using the bottom got electric sound..

Try still cannot. No light
In this case high probability is PSU died, can send for rma.

Recently my platinum PSU also have similar issue but still able to switch on after 5 flips but then cannot hold longer than 5 hours will auto shutdown and send for rma confirm is psu.

can try paperclip test. if psu fan spin means psu probably still ok and ur mb is the culprit (assuming that really nothing happens, not even fan spin).

Totally dead most likely the cause of spoiled psu especially if it old. Since you did not mention age of psu.
A 650w psu is the largest logical size psu for typical home use. 1/2 to 3/4 load of the psu is the best. Try not not built a power hungry pc for home use. Our electronics/electrical products can actually run with insufficient power supply. Lastly try to get those good and reliable brand.
