Spoke too soon, I seem to have a non-posting/booting machine.. :'(
Was in the middle of copying data from external USB HDD to data drive in the machine. Then unexpected power off.
Tried pressing power - nothing.
Removed all power, off at PSU. Back On, nothing.
Out comes everything - so only 20+4 connected & 1 4pin connected in 8 pin atx socket on mobo,
CPU and liquid cooler( hasn't leaked )
3 fans to the 3 headers
And the buttons/leds for side panel of case..
I'm now getting power briefly, then off - no post( case doesn't have speaker )
I hope one of you gurus out there has some advice.
My thoughts are -perhaps a grounding issue(but why was it working for the last I or so hours.
Other ideas are PSU faulty or CPU has died. ( or have I wired up the machine wrong and killed it?)

PSU dud / have quickly checked with a friends PSU and system is booting to bios again. PSU doesn't fit my case and can't get all the extras connected up - so will try getting a warranty/DOA replacement and see how that goes.
