My rx 580 is crashing every game I play whether its 2 minutes in, 5 seconds or 2 hours and my tv loses connection to the pc and ten seconds later It's back at home screen and everything is closed and it says radeon wattman settings have reverted back to default. This has happened over 30 times in the past 3 days that I got this card and built this pc. I will disclose more details upon contact but I desperatly need help my psu is a rosewill hive 650w could this be my problem I don't know if rosewell has good psu's. PLEASE HELP. I have tried everything I am thinking of returning it for a nvidia, I reinstalled windows I uninstalled and reinstalled drivers 5 times, I swapped ram sticks got a new better hdmi, the only thing I can think of is my psu.

Post full specs. Card is new or used? You have a whole new PC or just the card? Which way did u install drivers? Proper way of installing drivers for this card: https://www.amd.com/en/support/graphics/radeon-500-series/radeon-rx-500-series/radeon-rx-580 
Which games have you tried?

Is there anyway I could test the psu by powering the sytem on a 350w seasonic psu and then use my 650w and plug it into the gpu to test if its the psu? btw need to use 350w because it doesnt have a 6+2 pin connector otherwise I would do it the other way around.

Whole pc built a week ago brand new everything installed it from the link you gave me, about 5 times and they kept reoccuring even uninstalled old, have tried realm royale, fortnite, warface, all crash 2 minutes to 3hrs in, but they all eventually crash.

If one PSU is only powering the gpu it will be fine. But psu problems arent that common. 650w is basicly overkill for rx580 and r5 2600 (nothing wring with overkill tho). But i dont have any experience with rosewill PSUs so there is that.

IDK post this to other forums aswell. Like tom's hardware forums and such. But first thing in trouble shooting is to gather as much data as posible. Monitor temperatures in those games. Idealy with MSI after burner as it will show you temps while in games and can save it to files so u can see what they were when the crash happened. Monitor temps of CPU, GPU and RAM (and more if you want) +usage. Also did you do any overclocking? On anything...even RAM. If you already used XMP in BIOS for your ram i suggest putting back to stock speeds (usually 2133 or 2400mhz) for the purpouse of testing.
