Well, since I saw your parts list in another thread, I am by no means surprised you have some issues from time to timei call it trash because i have two of them... or had.

My 750GQ is a warrior, now honorably discharged after ~5 years of service. And hopefully, it'll still serve me by recouping some of the cash spent on the new Cougar.
Looks like. And no kidding, during the exact HZD benchmark there were some 410W+ readings on the Radeon overlay now with the new PSU. Still under observation, but the path looks good.

The 7900XTX is waaaay more spikey, or sensitive, or maybe both than any other card I've ever had. It's wild.
