Hi thank u for your response. Since posting this i unplugged all non essential usb and drives.
Basically came to the conclusion (thus far) that a faulty case fan and led strip in the front of my case was shorting my psu. Since unplugging them i have had no random reboots for 3 days now with normal usage. Not sure if this helps anyone else bt i am shocked and pleased that something so stupid cud fix the problem thus far. That being said i dont know what the long term damage could be. But so far so good
