hello everyone , i am having issues with my computer i narrowed the problem down the psu and gpu. i replaced my CPU and heat sink and motherboard. The only things i haven't replaced is the ram, ssd , gpu and psu. The buzzing sound only happens when i use my 2060 which is the only card I have that has a need for external power my other cards work fine. i have figured out that the sound is from none of the fans. i have a strong feeling it is the psu because it sounds electrical and its new where my gpu was bought used.It turns off after 4 to 5 mins of max settings it reachs around 80c then video cuts , but the pc is still powered on . I cant find something of this issue anywhere.

If the AGW 550W Bronze+ PSU is an ARESGAME PSU, I'm afraid it's listed in the Cultists Network PSU quality list as "Tier F- Replace Immediately". This is not good news!

https://cultists.network/140/psu-tier-list/

To clarify, the lowest quality PSU on the Cultists List you should consider is a "Tier C, Low-End". A better bet would be a "Tier B, Mid-Range. If money is no problem, fit a "Tier A, High_End" PSU.

If your AGW PSU is a "Tier F" ARESGAME unit, it's off the bottom end of the scale as far as desirability is concerned. Stop using it now before it destroys your motherboard or GPU.

I know it's difficult to find a good PSU at an affordable price in some parts of the world, or if you're a student on a tight budget, but you really should ditch the AGW PSU now and get a much higher quality unit.

This web site suggests you should be looking at a 650 to 1000W PSU for use with the 2060 GPU. 1000W sounds like overkill to me unless you're running an overclocked i9-13900K, but 650W is as low as I'd be prepared to go with a quality PSU. The EVGA 500W might not be enough. Check any unit you intend to buy in the list. Some low end EVGA units are marked "Avoid".

Best of luck.
