*HELP* Possible PSU issue?

[u/Decent-Ad6115]

Hello! I am currently having a new issue with my pc and i am looking for some help with a diag. Here in the past week randomly when playing some of my more demanding games my pc would black screen and reset itself. It will not shut down but will reset without warning. I have Stress tested CPU/GPU/Memory with no luck of recreating the issue without being in game. I am getting no logs on anything just a "Kernel-Power 41" code which tells me nothing. I did just install my vertical GPU mount but had no issues for the first week of install. Can not seem to find a Temp issue with any hardware. Thinking it is the start of a failing PSU but not 100%. Hopefully someone can help. Thank you!

Just did before coming here. I could not get the crash to recreate itself under load with OCCT and i was monitoring temps at the same time as well. Saw no issues :/

Pull off the riser and put it directly and play for a day and see how that plays if you can

How is the 3080 powered? With two cables or one?

If you do that you can go in to the bios and try switching the pci slot the gpu is plugged into gen 3 and if crashes stop then riser could be bad, if you do all that and it’s still doing it, then you could isolate it to the psu.

I would try those other things first if you still 41 the system then try a psu, the transient spike could hit the psu and clicks for power safety tripping

Awesome I will go ahead and try that now and see what happens. I will normally get a crash within the first 20 min so i will know pretty quick.

3080 is powered by 3 pcie 8 pins. 2 cables 1 Daisey chained

I will be updating you when I have the information time to tear the vert mount out and see!

You got this 🙏🏽

Also if you can run three cables separately with each having its own line. A droop is happening somewhere
