Question How to test my GPU ?

[ImmaJoker]

My PC suddenly turned off yesterday while I was playing 2k, and when i tried to turn it back on, it won't and it just lights up for 1 second. After a day of finding out what's the problem. I tried removing my GPU and the PC then turned on normally. How can I further assess my GPU? Is there a chance that it's a PSU problem?

Please help.

What are the complete specs for this system (make/model of ALL installed components)?

These sorts of issues are often NOT the GPU, but the PSU. Be sure to tell us how old the PSU is, as well.

Cpu - Ryzen 5 5600x
Mobo - MSI b450 Pro Max
GPU - Gigabyte Rtx 2060 6gb
PSU - Corsair Cv 550
Ram - T force delta 2x8gb 3600 ddr4 Cl16

My psu is around 5 years old.

Try a new, quality PSU. This is very likely to solve the problem.

I will buy a new psu with higher power output and quality. Will update, thanks for the response.

As COLGeek said, make sure it is a quality PSU.

If possible, test GPU in some other PC, without an iGPU in the CPU you cannot know if it's working properly .

Also check the PSU for any burned smell.

Is the 1stplayer steampunk 850w 80+ Gold a quality enough PSU?

Depending on your luck, a no name PSU could last you several years and a top tier PSU could die in 2 and take the rest of the system with it. But the chance of either happening is rather low.
If you want a good PSU check the PSU section for recommendations.
