It's a cheapo budget model, right (not cost but components)? What do you expect when loading it up? I just replaced an 850W decent rosewill with 1000 superflower, b/c it could no longer handle vega 64. You can't load em up anywhere close to peak if you want stability/longevity. Also, peak power draw for a split second, not worthless average is what matters.
Buy better units. The minimum I use for a system like that is 620W (funnily enough, the actual cheap seasonics for 45 bucks work great lol).
I would argue any good unit can and will maintain those higher loads from personal experience. Until I shut down mining I was running ancient Antec TPQ models at basically full capacity for years...Same with several other in the "we basically rebadged server units" crowd.
Buy a well designed platform and they will take care of you for years and years to come.
