PC cut out and wont turn on again (nothing that is visible being powered) MSI/CORSAIR/INTEL

hi i built a pc recently (first time) and it has been working fine but has cut out and now wont turn on. I thought it was the PSU so i tested it with the 'paperclip' test and the fan of the PSU spins however i know that is not a guarantee it works.

No fans spin now when the PS is in the PC nor any lights .

I don't think it is down to overheating i have decent airflow and temperatures have never exceeded 65 C an average would be around 29 C idle and 50ish C

I have not ventured in overclocking

All my parts are new and first hand bought from amazon within the past 3 months

I have made sure that all parts are securely in place and nothing is missing

I use my PC every day and already miss it :'( so If there is anything anyone can suggest i try to fix it myself, that would be most appreciated cheers :) ,

Solution
Undo your front power switch connector and try to cut it on by jumping the connectors on the motherboard.
If that works you can just hook your reset switch to that and use it to cut the PC on.
