    Question Crash/Freeze problem with RTX 3080Ti... maybe?

    I actually pulled the PSU out and looked at it.. says its a 800W PSU made by "High Power" , which according to other posts on this website, is made by Sirtec. I removed the card from my computer and replaced it back with my old 1080Ti to see if I get any of the original issues with the 3080Ti...

    My GPU power is as low as I can set it, GPU target temp as low as it goes. I've left GPU voltage at defaults to reduce the odds of creating instability.

    Installed an ASUS ROG STRIX RTX 3080Ti a couple months ago, ever since, been having random freezes/crashes. This only happens in a game, never while doing anything else. When it freezes, I have to power off the computer and power it back on. After the post-freeze power cycle, the computer...
