Just the CPU and GPU need around 425W according to PC Part Picker. Try entering all your pc components in "system builder". Keep us posted :)

Is low fps something you notice in other games? I'm thinking it's either the insufficient wattage from your power supply or your Fortnite settings that simply aren't optimized.

What's your screen resolution?

Hi! Fortunately, you aren't experiencing artifacts yet. Before getting rid of the card, PLEASE try underclocking it. MSI AFTERBURNER

Yes, that's totally fine. In a few years, you might want to replace thermal paste just to help the card run a little cooler. Until it reaches 80°c or higher, don't bother. You can also look into underclocking and better airflow to help with your temperatures. Hope this helps

Can you try powering on the system without the GPU.

You can also try underclocking your GPU, which would greatly help pinpoint the problem.

Try underclocking your GPU (mostly memory clock). That could help pinpoint the problem to either graphics card or PSU. Keep me updated.

This card seems to be sold only on AliExpress. Be careful when buying online. I would 100% stay away. Too much risk for your money. Can't tell if it's necessarily fake as some manufacturers release different GPU heatsinks depending on the country in which the card is sold. You are better...

If you can, go for a gtx 1080. Great card overall, 8pin power connector (same as RX 580) and can be found at a decent price for the performance that it offers compared to many other cards such as the RX 5600 XT (don't go for that one, you'll regret it lol). Anyway, hope that helps. For more...

Try underclocking GPU memory clock and overall power limit in MSI AFTERBURNER. Worked for my Titan X. Hope this helps :)

I am using a VS500 PSU by Corsair. Don't think PSU is the problem, as I get a black screen (not artifacts like in my PC) when GPU is installed in a computer equipped with an RM650. I'd just like to clarify that this card only requires a 8pin connector.

Here is a photo of what I believe may be heat damage: View: https://imgur.com/a/kABOqfy I installed the g12 because my GPU temperatures were constantly above 85 degrees while gaming (info from GPU-Z). A friend of mine suggested that for longevity and overall performance, it was better to keep...

Long story short, about a month ago, I replaced my GPU cooler (gtx1080 Turbo) for the NZXT g12. 200$ down the road, my temps were much much better overall. Yesterday, I opened my computer and was greeted with a bunch of horizontal 1" white lines all over my screen. In my roomate's PC, the...
