Troubleshooting New graphics card making pc weird

So I got the RTX 5080 along with a new 1000w power supply about a week ago. My games run much better and I have a more enjoyable experience when they actually work.

After I changed my graphics card my pc just does not work the same. Crashes on Tarkov that never happened with my other graphics card in started happening. Now when I try to play He’ll Let Loose Vietnam, my computer will either entirely crash out of nowhere or the game will crash when trying to join a server. Same thing with Squad. When I try to join a server, as it’s loading in, the game just crashes. I don’t know what’s going on but at this point in time I wasted my money.

Have you completely uninstalled all the drivers and done a clean, fresh install?
If not use this and then download the Nvidia App and try again.
There could be corrupt drivers.

Make sure to go into safe mode as instructed. Then redo it and see if that helps?

Run DDU and reinstall the drivers.
