Hello!
I have a thing that I need confirmation on.
The story goes as follows: I have Gigabyte GTX1070 G1 Gaming Rock, Ryzen 5 1600 on Stock speeds, 16GB RAM and PSU Tacens Valeo V 700W.
Unfortunetly, I have lost PCI-E cable that connects from PSU to 8-pin slot (PSU has only 6 pin connectors!). I had to use as temporary double molex to 8pin adapter that came with card to power it up.
So I went on about testing the graphics card as is leaving it on stock/gaming mode in AORUS software. Problem is, Witcher 3 immidiately after loading in game (into free roam), crashes GPU, causing screen to go black and fans speed up to 100%.
I have underclocked it by 200Mhz and issue got fixed. HOWEVER, when playing Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, the GPU seemingly crashes as well with underclock on ultra details, spinning fans up to 100%. Seems like with these two, driver resets, but GPU doesn't recover.
Now my question is:
Will replacing my PSU to new one (I have around 110 dollars) fix the crashing issue? Could it really be the Molex adapter that crashes GPU due to insufficient power? Cables don't get hot, I keep monitoring it.
What would be good PSU for this price?
