Take out the RX 480 and see if the problem goes away. If it does, RMA the 480.

Nope didn't work

Do you have the CPU and GPU overclocked?

Could be, but not likely. If you have the standoff in place on the motherboard but not screwed into the board, probably not, because the separation is still there. If you don't even have the standoff mount in place, there's at least a chance that the board is flexing into a short.

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.

no that wouldnt effect anything

I am quite disappointed as i just swapped the PSU and everything was fine, before i left it idling for a while.

I have had a similar problem in the past, If i remember right it had something to do with the computer sleeping/hibernating and not discharging the power from the internals.  I think the way I fixed it last time was I disconnected the power to my mother board.  I held down the power button for 15 seconds.  Then hooked the power back to the motherboard, with the switch on the back of the psu off continued to hold the power button, then while still holding the power button flipped the switch on the back of the psu at which point the computer booted up.  Or something like that. I think holding down the power button some how discharged the rest of the power and allowed it to boot up....

Searched the internet and my suggestion is close to what others say.. 

 

Unplug from the mains wall socket, Press and Hold in the Power Button for 30 seconds. Wait at least another 2 or 3 minutes and then plug back in and boot up. This often clears it. - This was another suggestion I found.. 

 

*note* this only works if it was in sleep or hibernation mode. If these suggestions don't work its likely something else is at play.

I'd RMA the mobo. I suspect it's shorted out somehow.

I was thinking that also but he said he tried a different one already

I agree something is probably shorted out.. but at this point he has tried two PSU's and Two Motherboards.  Only other items left could be the CPU and Ram.

So i have tried an older PSU which did the same exact thing, stopped turning on , after left for idling, so i replaced the PSU, built from scratch, Everything was fine, Everything booted, gamed for 4 hours, nice temps around 37-40 on load. left for idling and dead again.

So you used only one motherboard?  If so then yes it would make sense that it is the motherboard

 

No i used old PSU with both motherboards - didn't boot.
Replaced PSU. 
Used new PSU with both motherboards - worked.
Now again Old and new PSU doesn't work with both Motherboards.

 

Also connected the green wire pin in 24pin cable to the black pin to check if the PSU is alive. Same issue , fan rotates for some 15 degrees and dead.
