DYI Start button, electrical help needed.
The motherboard power button is the simplest possible switch. As long as you momentarily short the two pins, the PC will be triggered to startup.
Commonly the switches used are called "momentary switches" for this reason. Polarity also doesn't play a roll, this is why you can just short the pins with a screwdriver briefly.
In your diagram, you've essentially drawn a momentary switch.
