It all started when my old PSU died, I replaced it with a new EVGA 550 GD and it works fine without the GPU but when I plug the GPU my PC completely shuts off after 30 seconds or so. I tried booting Linux with a live CD and boots fine but as soon as I try to watch a video on youtube it shuts off. I also tried clearing the CMOS
My specs:
my old PSU was a Thermaltake TR2 500w, it lasted 7 years and worked fine with my GPU for 2 years until the outlet sparked while playing GTA V
I already ordered a new motherboard, CPU and RAM (Ryzen 5 3600, ASUS Prime b450-PLUS and 2x8gb DDR4) but I want to know if the GPU/motherboard is faulty or is the new PSU?
