Yes correct

Be it the original or spare PSU, same result

Thanks for the follow-up.

Well, I would conclude that it is the mobo issue since even if no cpu, ram and gpu installed, the case fans connected to the mobo should still be able to run continuously if PSU ok but yours doesn't. Some more you even tried a different PSU. Read through what others have mentioned and think it over cny ba.

Oh I see

Means motherboard or ram or processor?
Likely the mobo liao, if ram or processor....ur onboard fan pins still got power, that is.....ur casing & processor fans can still run. Just try a skeleton boot...if no go,,,can cfm mobo is dead....3rd Gen mobo very "lau" time to EOL....
yah not to forget change the ram to other dimm slot & the pci-e slot if ur using gfx card.

Change MB a lot need to change also, assuming current is dated technology. OS also need to reinstall; unless it was on ubuntu
if dated, can get same model to replace, much cheaper. many sellers on lazada/shopee

When I press the power button,

The fan behind spins for 1 second then stops

No spooling up sounds of any kind like it's supposed to have

No beep sounds

What's the problem?

but MB really quite hard to spoil tho

Yes and no. The PCB is tough but not necessarily the components on it. Traces on it can still be easily scratched by a careless screwdriver. Capacitors got a limited life. etc. That's why mobo manufacturers only offer a few years warranty unlike ram which is lifetime. Even PSU got longer warranty (5/10 years).

Some more his one is an ancient one.....from ddr3 time.

In any case, if the case fans connected to the mobo cannot even spin continuously on a power on, then it is very likely spoiled.
