What GPU did you have before? I assume it was much less power-hungry.

There's not any reliable reviews on that unit, but it's an unknown OEM with a max 12V rail is *only* 420W, and even then I wouldn't be confident in it.

250W TDP GPU, 125W TDP CPU, 50W+ for the balance of the components.

That PSU really isn't up to the task, and is likely the problem.
