I'm having some trouble with my 5070TI graphics card. It works fine for a few minutes, but then the fan stops spinning, and shortly after that, the GPU just shuts down and a red light comes on. I'm using a Corsair SF850 power supply. I've checked and reseated all the cables multiple times, but I still can't figure out the issue. Should I replace the power supply or the GPU?

Have you tried checking if you're using an 8 pin adapter properly? Sometimes people daisy chain from one or two cables instead of plugging in all three 8 pin sockets. Also, I recommend being cautious with the 16 pin cable—reseating it too many times can lead to burnout.
I'm using the 12v cable that came with the PSU, and it's not a native one.
