My PC is keep restarting when that GPU is installed. When i hit power button it boots to windows. After sometime lets say 5 mins, after my PC keep restarting and after several restarts and goes to no signal. I have another GPU Rx 290x when i install that, and it loads and working perfectly fine. I'm confused whether it's GPU problem or Insufficient power supply.

MY SPEC
CPU: Ryzen 3 3300x
MOTHERBOARD: Asus B550M-K
GPU: Asus Dual Rx 580 8G OC
PSU: Cooler Master MWE 550W White 80+
HDD: WD Green 7200rpm
 
Solution
I used online calculator for getting PSU that’s why this. Moreover I didn’t get any PSU other than this during this lockdown. I’m looking for LC-LC LLc resonant converter model
Online calculator and wattage are only 1 part of buying a power supply. A crappy 1200 watt PSU is still crappy and will cause issues compared to a QUALITY 550 watt unit. Cooler master does not make good PSUs, ESPECIALLY a white unit. I mean if you want to use I regraded graphics and make it into an office PC then sure. You are already seeing the issue with buying it. Wasting time and effort trying to figure out what the “problem” is. The problem is you got what you paid for.

The r290 does have a bit less power draw. Either way, that’s a horrible PSU to use with a dedicated GPU.

Have you done any overclocking to any parts on your computer? do you have many case fans? and led lights ? You should probably invest in a 650w power supply. I see this all too much people listen to others that say things like get a 550w it should more than enough, but it never is. 650w these days are the standard

No, I didn’t overclock anything it’s out of the box setup. I had 2 case fan connected after this problem I disconnected it. And I have stock cooler. No led lights. I didn’t get expected PSU during this lockdown, I’ll use this for few days.
