I just got a brand new psu thinking it will fix the issue, it didn't. PC black screens and audio is glitched and then it reboots when I play RDR2.

PC Specs:
CPU: r5 5500
GPU: rx 6570xt
RAM: 32gb 3200mhz
PSU: Deepcool PL650D (old one was cv550)
MB:ASUS Prime B450 Plus
1 HDD and 2 SSDs

The GPU is only a couple of months old, so it's practically brand new as well. Afterburner reports good temps.

Please help, I'm loosing my mind ;-;

You didn't exactly perform an upgrade in reality, on paper though you got 100W more. In essence, I would've invested on a higher quality PSU to rule out your doubt on the PSU arena.

As for your black screen, what BIOS version are you on for your motherboard? You could try and use DDU to remove all GPU drivers(Intel, Nvidia and AMD) in Safe Mode, then manually install the latest GPU driver sourced from AMD's support site in an elevated command, i.e, Right click installer>Run as Administrator.
 
do you have any psu cable extensions?
have you tried event viewer or crash dump logs?
Could be a driver issue?
what are your cpu and gpu temps when gaming?
cooler?
