I left my PC on last night to process some files while I watched TV in the same room. About an hour later I check on it, but the box is silent. Not only silent but it transpired it was stony dead. Nothing works, not a click, a buzz, a twitch of fan or a flicker of light.
This is the PC - it is three weeks old.

So I do have one or two questions... I am in the UK, in an urban area. Do you think it is possible that there could have been a surge without me noticing? Without the lights flickering or the tv going out?
What else could have happened? It was not overclocked, although I had the RAM up to 1867. I tested the power supply today and it is fine, meaning it is the motherboard or possibly the CPU, unless anyone has any bright ideas? The whole thing is completely inert.
What's the best way of getting these things replaced? Not sure if I should talk to the vendor or manufacturer.
Any help or commiserations welcome.
