PC turned off after I bumped it

I was setting up my pc in my room n I pushed it too hard against the desk and when it hit the desk it just suddenly powered off and died. I tried to power on again but it wouldnt.
I tried replugging all the main power cables and the cable for the front panel power switch, nothing.
I took the psu out and tried to power it on using a staple (I didnt have paper clips) and it did nothing. So, im thinking the psu is dead. But I've only had it for around 4 weeks so I'm very confused.

The PSU should die if it has been 'bumped'.
How are the power cord pins looking, are they bent?
What brand is the PSU? In 2026, I wouldn't be surprised if QC is poor as we are in a time where component reliability is being stretched for profit.

No the power pins look fine.
This is the psu: MSI MAG A650BN, Non-Modular Compact 650W Power Supply, 80+ Bronze, Low-Noise Fan, Active PFC Design, 5 Year Warranty
