My pc suddenly stopped and hasn't started since. Installed new PSU and now PSU only clicks without cpu cable plugged in.

My Pc last worked a week ago, I thought it was the PSU so I replaced it and the cmos battery as well. No start up and no nothing.

It sounds like something on your case is shorting out the motherboard.
Check for a standoff in the case that is not under a motherboard screwhole. Remove any extra that are present.
We have also had users forget to install the standoffs into the case when they were not pre-installed.
