I've just recently established that my power switch and it's corresponding cables have been the source of my problems for my pc. I was wondering when I purchase a replacement, if they are universal or is there a specific power switch for each case ( In my 'case': Corsair Carbide 200R)? Thanks!

probably hard to find an exact one. easy solution, plug the reset button into it. lol. No one uses reset buttons anymore on cases, just plug that header into the power button.

Other than that, either contact Corsair, they might send one for free just because a button shouldn't be the weak part of the case, or sell you one for a few bucks.

Can also take the switch out and go looking at a electronics place or online to find one. They are just momentary switches.


---- What makes you think your power button is the issue in the first place?

@getochkn Because I tested the rig at my mates house and we had already tried everything and I felt the power button was a bit flimsy so I switched it with his power switch and tried that, I'll give a go the switching of the two and we'll see if not then i'll just contact Corsair. Btw if i do contact them, does it need to be an RMA or just general request?
