[NZXT H440] Need help with power button

methodG

I have an NZXT H440 case that I bought in 2016. Of late, it has become increasingly hard to boot the system using the power button. I have to remove the top panel and then use something pointy to power it on. Also, in order to (not)create a separate thread, I am also looking for possible solutions related to case fans. A case fan or two keeps rattling and it has turned quite noisy too. Is it time to replace it? 

The case is out of warranty and I am looking for some assistance as to how I can solve these issues. 

Has anyone else experienced the same?

Probably. You really shouldn't hear case fans, except under heavy load

NOTE: I no longer frequent this site. If you really need help, PM/DM me and my e.mail will alert me.

Is it the noise of the fans moving the air, or is it a metallic noise? Bearing etc.

I suspect it must the bearing noise. I once removed all the parts and completely reassembled it, to see if any wires were possibly obstructing the fan blades. But that didn't help.
