I own an RTX 2070 (MSI Armour). I used to run the oc scanner a while back and everything was fine—no issues with games, no crashes. Recently though, my card would automatically boost up to 2010mhz, but any game I played at that moment would crash. More often than not, the whole system would fail without even a blue screen, just a complete kernel crash. Sometimes it would jump back up to 1980 then drop to 1950-1965 (15mhz steps). The only solution so far is disabling the oc scanner. I’m puzzled by this change. Previously, my card ran at +255mhz without problems, but now even a modest boost to +90mhz causes crashes and overboosts. The only recent changes were a better PSU (500w-750w upgrade) and new RAM (2400mhz-3200mhz). Please help! Thank you.

It seems there could be a power-related issue. Since the problem emerged after you replaced your PSU, it’s likely the cause. There may be multiple contributing factors, so testing various setups could help identify the problematic component.
