A week ago I updated the drivers and I started to smell something burning, and the screen started to turn off when I played Warthunder, then it became more frequent to the point that it turns off with anything I do, (the screen turns off but you can hear the sound of Discord or the game) and then it freezes to restart the PC.

I tried changing the monitor, doing maintenance on the PC (changing thermal paste and cleaning the dust) but it doesn't solve anything, all I have left to do is format Windows or change the GPU

SPECS:
RTX4090 MSI SUPRIM LIQUID 24GB
i9 12900K
32GB RAM 5600mhz
4TB SSD Nvme2
Windows 10 Pro

No, not any of the 8-pin connectors (except those that attach to the motherboard and those are different than the ones used for GPUs).

Look at the PSU link above. There are connectors on the PSU for the 12VHPWR cable that should attach directly to your GPU. That cable can handle up to 600w.

Are you saying you don't have it or it doesn't fit your GPU?

I already found it in my PSU box, I connected it and it works fine, luckily the GPU didn't burn out. Thank you very much for your help. I was able to find the problem and it was the PSU cables and the GPU works fine.
