I've been having a serious problem lately. My previous setup included a 2080 Ti paired with an i9 9900K, but after the GPU died, I switched to a 5070 Ti. Ever since then, all my games have been crashing, and some even cause my PC to restart! Here are my specs:
- CPU: i9 9900K
- GPU: 5070 Ti
- Motherboard: Maximus 11 Hero
- RAM: 32GB DDR4 at 3200Hz
- PSU: 1000W
I'm really looking for some solutions here. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It could be that your PSU isn't handling the power demands of the new 5070 Ti. This type of issue started with the 3000 series GPUs. You can try power limiting your GPU to see if that helps. Also, running benchmarks like 3DMark can help pinpoint where the crashes are happening.
Have you tried using DDU in safe mode to remove old drivers? It's a good way to ensure you have a clean install of the latest drivers for your new GPU.
Yeah, I did that and even reinstalled the OS, but the crashes keep happening.
How do I actually power limit the 5070 Ti?
