Dual monitor system cash / reboot when starting a game

Go to solution Solved by InsufficientSleep,

Fixed it. Not sure what fixed it though. 

All I did was to re-seat the GPU for the 2nd time, used /scannow without seeing anything bad and 2 x DDU. 

I can now run games and my monitors works at max resolution and Hz 

Hi, My system crashes and reboots whenever I try starting a game.  I have tried every game I have and the only game that sometimes starts up is DOOM and Doom Eternal. FFXIV is really bad and crashes as soon as I hit play. 

I have used the G9 monitor without problems since May running it at max settings , but I wanted to add a second monitor.

As soon as I added the second monitor it started to crash.  When I disconnect everything it works fine again. I can use both screens just fine as long as I don't start a game.

 

I have tried a few different monitors, reinstalled the GPU driver , switched to different HDMI / DP-cables, tried new PSU cables.

Checked the power draw up to the crash moment but it don't even jump over idle on the PSU before it crashes ( iCue 144W + - some on idle) .

Also tried with G-sync on and off, different resolutions and Hz. I tried running my PSU in Single rail config too with no luck.

Is my 2080ti just too weak or is something else going on ? 

I deleted the event log and did a few more tries, these screenshots are the only error I get.
