[SOLVED] Is my GPU broken?

[kobevue559]

So I bought a PC on Craigslist, I play league of legends and I get no problems, but everytime I play a high intense graphic game, myPC either runs it for a little bit then shuts down, or it shuts down as The game boots up, I’m not sure if it’s my GPU or my PSU, I tried overclocking my Gpu 2 days ago and it made my screen go black and it just froze, I’m not sure if my GPU is broken or my PSU

SPECS: cpu: i3 8100
Gpu:rx580
Mobo: z370
PSU: 600 WATTS

or could it be a drivers problem?

What exact brand and model number of PSU is that?

Were you having trouble BEFORE you overclocked the GPU?

 

[kobevue559]

the exact brand is EVGA and yes I was already have problems before I overclocked it, I overclocked it just to check if it was my GPU with the issues and now I’m thinking that it could possibly be, or it’s my drivers

Depends on the exact model, EVGA have some good models and some that are total rubbish.

Also, if you were having trouble previously, then overclocking was the LAST thing you should do. That can't really pinpoint such trouble, it just adds another variable.

League of legends isnt that intensive and could run easily on integrated graphics which you may have enabled. Check if its your gpu that is enabled and that the hdmi port is plugged onto it and not the motherboard
