Hi, sorry for the delayed reply. I gradually reduced the GPU power target to prevent shutdowns, but the issue worsened quickly—system shut down when drawing under 200 watts from the wall. That’s unusual with a 1000-watt PSU, so it looks like the hardware is failing. After replacing the PSU with my NAS model, everything has worked smoothly for about two months without any shutdowns. For a test, I put the original 1000-watt PSU back in and it failed right away. I’ve reached out to EVGA about the warranty, but only got an automated reply. Thanks for your help, and I’ll mark this as closed.
