Question Bought a Used GPU Off eBay and This Happens

I managed to catch it on video so I'll attach that.

This will happen mid game, so when the system is under a load.

I was recording the GPUs performance to see what was happening when the computer died but nothing seems to be irregular.

It will do this and I will have to unplug my PC and plug it back in for it to turn on even though I can see lights from my usb attachments are still on. I recently mixed one of my ram kits to see if I could get 32gb of ram without any issues and this would happen but i wouldn’t have to unplug and replug the PC for it to turn back on, although I believe that was a product of mixing ram kits.

Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks yall.

undo overcloking, does it happen then too?
update the bios of the motherboard

I know it’s not the cpu oc because I have been running it for months, and I’ll update my bios.

I just impulse bought a Cooler Master MWE Gold 850 to see if that fixes my issue aswell lol. The nature of me having to unplug it and plug it back in after it shutting off leads me to believe it’s a wattage issue, also because this card uses about 2x more wattage than my old 1060.
