Tried switching spare power ports on the backplane and worked for a few days, I go to power on my bb2 and now nothing again!

Got it. I’ll try and get a new CPU when I can. Funny enough last night the monitors started working again.

I would try removing the video card, cleaning the contacts with an eraser and reinstalling it.  Also, check that the fan in the cpu is fully functional as the video card relies on air movement to keep it from overheating.  You could also remove the heat sink form the video card and add fresh thermal paste to make sure it's doing its job.  Lastly, if you have a spare video card I would try that first before spending more on a CPU, although it's good to have a spare for situations like this.
If it ain't broke don't mess with it.....
