Ok that’s a problem and the likely cause of your issue. That so called 500w only claims 22A on the 12v rail which is the most important rail (22A x 12V = 264w). By its own spec it’s really a 300w psu and at <£20 it’s going to be terrible quality.

The first thing to do is get a good quality 500w or greater psu. The Corsair CX550 are ok and usually reasonably priced. Although be careful, don’t get the CX500.
