My PC won’t turn on :(

I’m a new PC builder and I completed my first build about a month and a half ago. My PC has been working ok since then, but every time I would shut it down I would have to unplug the power cord to the outlet and play around in order to get it working. This time, my pc showed zero signs of turning on after I shut it down. I replaced my motherboard and psu so I know that’s not the problem. My power button on my case feels a little flimsy on the Corsair 200r. The only thing I could possibly imagine is my case/power button not working. So, I used a flathead screwdriver and touched the 2 power connector headers on the motherboard for 1-2 seconds like other threads/videos were saying. That didn’t work either. I feel like I’ve tried everything and I feel like I’ve given up, I really just want it to work. Any help would be much appreciated :)

Sounds similar to what happened to me back in a while. My system wasn't even posting regardless of what I do (reset CMOS, swap memory DIMMs, power recycle), then I removed the CPU, cleaned the ISH (as usual), then put back in and everything went working once again. I know how frustrated it would make someone.

I’ll try it, but I doubt it will work because I just bought a new motherboard and I got the same result.
