First I'll list my specs:
ASROCK H97 Anniversary
Kingston 2x4GB DDR3
Gigabyte RX 570 8GB
Corsair CX750
i5-4690
Okay, so my PC starts like normal and I can stress it as much as I want with my glorious intel hd 4600 but once I switch to my GPU, it all goes downhill. I cannot watch a YouTube video without it crashing. I had updated my drivers, all of them, my PSU is brand new and tested (covered in warranty since my old one did an oopsie a few years ago). The only thing I haven't tried doing is reinstalling Windows, but to be frank, I don't think that will work, since I had an R9 390X with the same issues, thought it was the GPU, changed it to a 570, and those same issues persist. My only guess is that a capacitator responsible for the PCI-E slot just gave up. Is there any hope for it to be anything else? If not, when I open up my case, what should I look for that will tell me that anything responsible for the PCI-E is broken?
