Resolved, thank you

technically, if you've wired it up wrong- you've caused the damage . As mentioned could have been wiring or you've caused a short somewhere from mounting .

Can RMA board directly to gigabyte , only ones to repair their mobo in the UK so no worries about delays with shipping etc . Reseller would have sent it off to them anyways .

Not not mention about removing the board and that corsair hardware sparked and caused the problem as thats what has caused the fault. Just say your board has stopped working , Play dumb.
await to see how RMA goes, shouldn't take longer then a week. If they refuse and somehow find in some way its from a power surge most likely you'll have to do an RAM with corsair as their hardware has taken out other pieces of hardware (like CLC/AIO leak taking out a motherboard/GPU... up to the vendor of that liquid cooler to replace your parts damaged)

would actually still open an RMA with corsair and get that unit looked into as its expensive and has caused a big amount of damage
 
Thank you for the info! I just checked gigabytes site and it says to go where I purchased it, but you're right it would only go there anyways so I'll try that route

As for the case, should I go directly to corsair with it or overclockers? As I ordered it last wednesday from OCUK

If it’s just ordered then I’d say go through OC, having worked in CS (not PC hardware) we wouldn’t deal with individuals where possible and always routed them through the authorised resellers that they purchased from because they had an account with us to manage RMA’s.
