Recently i changed my PSU to a Corsair RM850x Due to other issues with my PSU
When i got this new one installed it went fine for 4 days playing Witcher 3 now suddenly my PC Shuts off Again. The issue happened on my last PSU which was a CV650 at the time but people told me it wasnt strong enough to handle my i9-10900k and RTX 3080 so i brought the RM850x instead but the issues are still happening and it happens mostly when playing Witcher 3 and Alt-Tabbing out the game to browse the Internet etc...

Doesn’t mean jack! Corsair have a poor manufacturing process compared to most other brands.

so why is it on BuildaPC Subreddit , PCPartpicker , Tomshardware and LinusTechTips Forums all recommending the RM850x. You calling those experts liars?? You tell me a good power supply then?

Likely because they’re all from the US so they get the good batch. The UK seems to get most of the duff units. You just have to look at Amazon reviews etc. Nothing but problems.

For power supplies in the UK anything from EVGA and XPG seems to be reliable.

They’re not though! I’ve been through 3 power packs from them all died after a couple months. After pouring my frustrations onto an Amazon review I went and bought an EVGA pack. Still haven’t had a problem after 6 years of nonstop use. Corsair are trash.

That's how I feel about Western Digital, so I only use Seagate now.

You were just unlucky . Also depends on the cost .

edit
EVGA is a good brand but they make gaffes too . Recently several EVGA RTX 3090 bricked due to bad soldering . Years age EVGA launched a GPU with copy paste heatsinks and it did work bad ! But EVGA learn and improve . They are a good brand .

I couldnt afford a Corsair PSU and wanted to get EVGA but ended up with another brand because the shop didnt have EVGA PSUs at that moment . Even now i d buy EVGA prudcts despite recent gaffes .

if it can handle stress tests the psu is fine, more likely drivers

ddu wipes everything driver related and driver settings that might be causing the issues

My Corsair PSU seems to work fine. But i had an older one fail one me. But it lasted 9 years.
Not saying that their PSU's can't break. Sometimes you'll get unlucky of receing bad unit. If this keeps happening, just send it back and exchange it with a working one.

one thing im going to try first is use 2 8 Pin PCIe Cables for my 3080. because i heard it isnt a good idea to daisy chain on a 3080. So using 2 PCIe Cables to the 3080 might solve the problem. ill try it and test and see how it goes. if not ill buy a new PSU.

Daisy chain is never a good idea on power hungry GPU's. Might be one of the reasons why your systems shuts off because the cable ran too hot. Daisy chain will work up to 225w. Because one cable can pull up to 150w and the PCI-E slot does 75w. So GPU's that draw less will work.
