Sorry for the confusion with my English. I just received my first GPU 3060zotac. After installing it, connecting everything and turning on the PC causes it to power cycle repeatedly. What might be causing this issue? I recently upgraded my PSU to a 750W Gigabyte P750G-M2 v2. The CPU is an AMD Ryzen 5 3400G. Could this power cycling be related to using a PCIe cable in the PSU, or are all cables the same? That seems like the only reason I can think of.

Have you considered swapping out the GPU?

Your power source has been improved. Are you still relying on the previous cables?

It seems to assist effectively. Regarding PCIe ports on the PSU, they typically remain consistent across units unless specified otherwise.

I'm not sure about that, though I'm glad the GPU was reinstalled.
