while using my mobo suddenly stop working,it just wont turn back on ,everything else works on another system,just mobo not working. no burn mark or smell

i assume it was my PSU that cause my mobo to short so i bought a new one and replace the mobo also.2 weeks later ,same thing happen,the new mobo shorted again.(so its not psu problem)

i inspected my case thoroughly for any miss contact or wire or broken standoff, didn't find anything

my question is wat can cause a mobo a short llike that ? processor CPU ? my power outlet ? overheating ?
