PC Crashing since plugging in 3080

[SStickells]

So yesterday I had my 3080 FE running off of a single PCIe coming from my PSU, but it was a 2 x pin cable, and my pc seemed to be running fine but I knew this wasn't the proper way to have the GPU running, since, I have plugged in a new cable into my PSU  and now have both PCIe ports taken up on my PSU and going into the new 12 pin adapter NVIDIA provided me with. and my PC seems to be crashing everytime it goes underload. The 'view reliability monitor' is showing this when crashing:

Thermaltake TPG-0750F-R 750W

hmm.. there's only 2 of those cables so u cant swap cables to test

 

try running it only on the new cable? see if issue occurs

Is it okay to run a 3080 off of just one PCIe port?

if the psu allows 2x 6+2pin on one cable, i would assume it would be fine to use them as is

of course 2 separate cable is better, electrically speaking but if it's causing issues then it's not better now is it

Have also noticed *i think* my CPU normally runs at max boost, so 4.7GHz as its a i7-8700K but currently its running at 4.3 so didnt know if that was also being throttled or something.

That's a separate case, and it's most likely normal operation as boost clock happens only if you have low thread count load, CPU will run at lower clock speeds if load is spread across more cores

think going back to just one cable has got it stable again, really confused why two would make it crash?

this is an interesting case, maybe someone else can give some insights?

hopefully, really confused about it, defnitely working fine now, but like I said running off one PCIe power.

since no one replied, maybe try contacting thermaltake, you might have a defective unit

Just got a new PSU, no PC crashes yet but testing a few games and GTA seems to crash constantly at the moment:
