Which graphic card were you using previously? and is there also a blue screen when the PC shuts down?

I had a 1050 ti before the rx 580 and had no problems then and no blue screen pops out complete shut down as if someone pulled the plug.

What model and age is your power supply? It may be failing or incapable of providing the power needed by your new card even if it is new.

I doubt that is your GPU, I think you have a problem with your PSU, do check your pc with another PSU although 600w is way more than enough, there might be something other that is bad with the PSU. How long mostly your games run? Try this, turn down the game settings and turn on V sync, thats how you can see if lesser gpu load (meaning lwss power draw) helps.

Certain games like assassins creed and rust would shut off around 20-30 minutes of play time. So what I did was the gpu fans at 70% and it stills shut off so I put it at 90% but I'm to scared it might crash again so I haven't tried it. Some times over watch would shut off my pc too which is really surprising.

Report back with CPU and GPU temps while playing game.

When I play I get aorund 50-65 and it shuts off also I just did a furmark gpu test and it shut off instantly.

Check your system with another PSU or GPU(requiring equal or more power) which ever you can find earlier.

DOn't have any other psu but I do have my old 1050 ti

Edit: I tested furmark on my rx 580 and it shut downed instantly but on my 1050 ti everything was good so I believe it was my graphics card.

It could still be a power supply problem. When I upgraded my video card last year from a GTX 760 to a GTX 1060 everything worked fine until I went into a game. It then crashed. I requested a RMA on the video card but before I used it I replaced the year old power supply at the recommendation of the forum and the problem totally disappeared. I assume the problem was the power supply could not provide the needed power to the card even though the total wattage (650 watts) was way above what was needed. I have had more than one power supply die prematurely or be DOA.

RX580 needs more power than a 1050ti.
