My specks: XFX AMD RX 590 AMD Ryzen 5 3600x Corsair 750 watt psu (it was bought used said it was good condition) So the problem I'm having is I think with the psu, the computer powers on ok then I load up a game then the computer does instantly, as I said before the psu is used so it could have been a bad psu handed down but idk. I could use a professional opinion before i refund it and get a new one. Thanks.

Computer turns on then when I run a game it shuts off

Ok thanks and no not right now

Send it back.

Always buy new PSUs. It's worth it.

If you have a budget, ask around. Someone will suggest a good PSU that fits your wattage requirements within your price range.

Also, you could probably get 550w to 650w for your system, the 750w is a bit overkill.

For anybody else having this problem I put in my other PSU and it worked so im pretty positive that it was the PSU thanks for the help everyone!

One of these things is not like the other. Did you do anything to your CPU with thermal paste or seating the cooler?
