This is my second PC build but my first time building a water-cooled PC. It keeps cutting out when I try to set it up, when I get to either the BIOS or Windows install screen it only displays for about 2 minutes before it just stops displaying even tho the PC is still on. At first I was told it was probably a power supply issue and that the 850W PSU wasn't enough so I bought the 550W PSU and the problem is still happening. I've tried 2 different monitors which both work fine with my current PC and I've also tried using the RAM from my current PC (2x8GB Corsair Vengeance 3600mhz) but nothing so far has seemed to help with the issue, still seems to be pretty consistently cutting out after around 2 minutes. Any help would be much appreciated

 

My specs are: 

 

CPU: Intel i5-11600KF

MB: Asus B560-G 

GPU: MSI Ventus 3080 10GB

RAM: 4x8GB Corsair Dominator DDR4 3600mhz

STORAGE: Samsung 970 EVO 1TB

PSU: Cooler Master 850W 80+ Gold SFX & Cooler Master 550W 80+ Gold SFX

Disconnect networking and try again. 2 minutes is usually the amount of time Windows takes to download drivers, install them, then initialize them, and it can be that the Nvidia drivers are failing to initialize for some reason. 

I've taken the WIFI antenna out from the MB and still cuts out

could be a bad video driver, try going into safe mode and then using ddu and then use nvcleanstall to install your gpu driver(you can also use geforce experience or download the driver itself from nvidias website but nvcleanstall gives you more control over the installation.)

 

also how would downgrading from an 850w to a 550w psu fix anything? it would actually make it worse since a 550watt cannot run a 3080.

I can't download anything onto the PC yet, I haven't been able to make it past the windows install screen. Or are you meaning put it onto a usb and do something in the BIOS? 

I've got both power supplies connected, the case I went with only fits an SFX PSU and I couldn't find a PSU any bigger that 850W in SFX.
