As stated in the title my PC suddenly completely shuts down as if i would lose power. I am pretty sure that it is the Power supply but i wanted to ask if it even is possible for a CPU or GPU to just let the whole computer lose electricity before i buy a new PSU

    I had a similar problem once when I incorrectly wired my PSU to my GPU. I didn’t realize that if the GPU has two PSU inputs, it requires two separate lines rather than a single line split. Seems obvious, but I’m not very bright.

    Anyway, running two separate lines to the GPU fixed the problem.
