[SOLVED] Just upgraded my gpu and now my games are crashing if I increase the quality ?

Hi, I need some help. I just upgraded my gtx 1660 super to a sapphire nitro+ AMD Radeon rx 6800 txt SE and after installing the drivers I tried to play some
games but ever time I increase the graphics the pc just crashes completely and the weird thing is that to turn the pc back on I need to take off the power cable and put it back on… Then I tried some vr games, the same thing happened, I can launch the games but it crashes after increasing the graphics… Then I tried to do a stress test with the amd software and it doesn’t even take a second to crash the pc. I’m starting to think that maybe my psu is not up to date with the gpu…

My specs:

CPU-Ryzen 5 3600
Psu- Unyka 52053 950W
Ram - 2x8
Motherboard- B450 gaming plus max

The thing is that I’m not sure if the Psu is the problem

This psu?

If so replace it imo. For only 58 bucks seems like there’s a reason for the price.

That’s the one, it did the job at the time but I guess it’s time to replace it with something stronger

No experience with that particular unit but I’ve fried ports on a board before due to using cheap power supplies.

Have a look here to give you an idea when shopping.
