Hey there, new member! I see you're dealing with some issues after your recent PC upgrade. You mentioned the MSI GeForce RTX 3060 VENTUS 3X 12GB GDDR6 is acting up—shutting off and on repeatedly, reaching the login screen but then powering down. You've tried a bunch of fixes like unplugging, reinstalling drivers, cleaning the CMOS, updating BIOS, changing RAM, and even a fresh Windows install. Still no luck with the specs listed. Your case is Nzxt H1 2nd gen, Ryzen 5 5360, 16GB RAM, 3200MHz, RTX 3060, 750W PSU from NZXT. Let's troubleshoot together!
Consider these options: 1. Check if another GPU triggers the same behavior. 2. Test on a different PC to see if the issue persists. 3. Try a bareboard setup with all components removed. 4. Experiment with another power supply unit. 5. Verify if your motherboard has an additional PCIe port for testing.
Hey everyone, great job on figuring it out! I already solved the issue. While using the old card, I installed the drivers for the new one, then switched to it. As soon as I restarted, everything seemed to work properly. I’ll keep you updated if anything shifts. Thanks again!
