Ok Tried Old PSU which is just 300w. turned on psu without connecting to motherboard light turns on. connected to Motherboard no light on psu or case. not sure if i put wires wrong. All parts are new. 

Either you've got a faulty motherboard or you connected the cables wrong,but I doubt it,considered the power cables only fit in one way..so...or you could connected the case's power button wrong.

Better calm down and double checking your cables connectors make sure they all goes in the right place and direction.Cheers.

if there are no lights at all either the PSU is broken or the psu cable isnt working. whatever it is, it's a power issue.
