Rebooting when gaming

Go to solution Solved by AndreiArgeanu,

Having an issue with my build after upgrading the GPU where it reboots after a few mins of playing games of any graphical capability - no BSOD, no error message, just completely cuts out and then boots back up again immediately. Have a feeling it's a power supply issue but just wondering if anyone had any other tips. Checked CPU and GPU temperatures and both seem to be fine, works fine with my older 1060 6GB and all running latest drivers and BIOS.

 

i7-10700K (no OC)

2x16GB 3200MHz Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro

Palit RTX 3060 Ti Dual

MSI Z490-A Pro

Corsair VS650 (5 years old)

Since the only thing you have changed is the GPU. And its a jump from a 1060 (120W) to an RTX 3060Ti (200W) It most likely its the PSU that cant keep up with the combination of the i7 10th gen and that RTX 3060ti.
