In short, while using "the finals" and sometimes "Minecraft" with intense shaders, my monitors shut down and the PC restarts. This doesn’t occur with other games like CS2 at full settings or Ready or Not at max, and no overheating is seen. I’ve checked temperatures and made sure both PCIe power ports use separate cables connected to their PSU. Any suggestions? I play at 4K 3090, 7800x3D, 32GB, 6000MHz, 850W, Gold Corsair PSU, GIGABYTE B650, AORUS ELITE AX V2 M.2 SSD.

Verify if the driver is current

I've confirmed all drivers are current.

Is it 2x16? The VRAM isn’t reaching 108°C, which seems to point to a power problem. Could it be a failing PSU or dirty wall power? Do you have a UPS installed? In Event Viewer, are there any entries other than the KP41 from the messy shutdown?

Completed the test until it crashed. The Event Viewer displayed "kernel power 41." I used a 2x16 and didn’t monitor VRAM temperature. No upgrades were needed, though other devices in my home don’t have this issue, so I think the system is fine.

It seems there may be a power-related problem. Check for dirty wall power—UPS can help—or a failing PSU. Are they sharing the same circuit and have comparable specifications? Even then, poor power delivery can cause issues.

Thanks a lot! I believe I’ll switch to a new PSU.
