Hey there,

Restarts like that normally point to an issue with the PSU. Yours is a pretty darn good one though. That doesn't mean it isn't failing .

You have a pretty power hungry system too, so it would be fair to say you will push any PSU. Have you another PSU you can swap and test with? Maybe a friend could lend you one? If not, then bringing to a local repair store and getting them to swap it out for 20$ to test is not a bad option either. That may not be a good option though with this Covid-19 floating about.

The i9 can get up some power usage, depending on load up to 200w, and the RTX2080ti on boost can hit about 275-300 too. Your PSU should handle that just fine. But for most things your not gonna push anywhere near that. Maybe a demanding game, but for the most part you wouldn't draw that much.
