i removed, gpu cables, mobo cables, ram it works but after few tries, even tried to use a different switch to power on psu it wouldnt start but after hitting the case or just trying to push same cables it will start with no issue, then again same nxt day wont start unless i move the case or try to push random cables on mobo n psu.. * +

so same today what i did was removed the pins of case reset on and of switch connected to mobo reinserted those pins back apart on and off switch, and turnd of my pc and tried to switch on after and hour via the screw driver , it starts up so far without powering off by it self after few min..

will try and wait for 2-3 hrs n check back if i power on by the screw driver n see if it turns off in few min by it self or not..what do you think its a psu issue? or its the case switch? but if its the case switch it shouldn't power off isn't it? * +

Did you get a new psu for your 3060 or still running a fire hazard? * +

You can install another switch and its not hard to do. Can either take one out from a old pc or buy one of those you can insert in a hole and fasten with a nut. It has to be a push button switch not one that locks in place. They are the easiest just drill a hole and install. Look clean also. Another option is to just use the restart button. * +
