[SOLVED] Power supply clicking and graphics card stopping working.

[BiggyManJames]

Since a year ago my power supply has been clicking. At first, it was very quiet and would stop in like 5 mins but now it can last the whole day and be very loud. I also have another issue that could be linked but maybe not. When playing certain games (Rocket League and sometimes GTA V), my screen will turn black and will stop recieving input. At the same time, my fans will go balistic and my pc will heat up a lot. When this happens the only thing i can do is shut down and turn it back on again and then it returns to normal. This happens almost every time i play rocket league for more than 30 mins but once in a blue moon for GTA V. No other games do this which is weird. I feel like it could be something to do with my power supply but it might also not be. I am thinking of replacing my psu but don't know if that will help or not.

Specs:
CPU: Ryzen 5 1600
GPU: GTX 1060 6gb
Memory: 1x16gb
MOBO: ASUS B-350 Plus
PSU: Corsair CMPSU-650TX

May not be a PSU issue, but that is a REALLY OLD PSU and probably should be retired.

Do you know what else could be the reason for the problem?

It sounds like two different issues. I don't know what the clicking sound is without context.
