Almost 1 month of having this gpu:

Occurence was lastnight while playing PUBG, and the 2nd time I'm experiencing it.

Will try to reproduce and contact customer support ASAP during my down times...
Also update..
 
Can you also tell what PSU you use exactly? brand/model?

And can you tell how the GPU is powered?
Do you use the adapter that comes with the GPU?
Or you use 12VHPWR cable from the PSU or 3rd party cable maybe?

Err, stop trying to reproduce and examine the machine for any possible burnt mark!!!!!!
Definitely check both end of the 16pin power conn
I meant more gaming when time permits but yes checked the ends and they were fine.

Apevia ATX-GX850W and only the original cables.
Both topics merged.
Please don't open multiple topics for the same query/issues.

Excuse my spam, I thought lost them when accidentally back buttons hit.

I would try a reliable and good quality power supply (Corsair, Seasonic..). Apevia seems to be using cheap chinese components even for a "gold" PSU.
