Hello, any advice would be much appreciated.
I just made my first try at building a PC. Everything has gone fine except when I run a gpu stress test, the PC crashes and shuts off completely. I have to turn the power supply off and on to get it to start up.
Here are the specs:
Asus crosshair hero Viii
AMD Ryzen 9 5900
Gigabyte aorus Radeon 6950 XT
Corsair HX1000i
Corsair vengeance pro 32gb
 
What kind of temps are you seeing with your GPU and CPU when stressing them?

40c, it’s the pretty instantaneous from when I start the test. I have played a couple games with no issues but I tried to open counter strike and it did the same exact thing. It goes through the menu but the second the game starts it crashes the same way

I have the gpu and cpu on a custom cooling lope.
