Hi,
I've "upgraded" from Seaasonic 520 plat to 750 GT.
Now my PC reboots every few minutes. Screen goes dark while gaming or at desktop and reboot starts.
I went back to Seasonic and problem stopped. Then I made sure that all new cables are perfectly connected and still reboots. I used second set of cables form the box..reboots...used GPU2 and CPU 2 slots on PSU...still reboots.
Tried  restoring BIOS. I did NOT try to reinstall windows, as I don't believe its necessary when swapping PSU's
Now im back on seasonic asking for help. Did i receive a faulty unit? It looks like.
Asrock phantom gaming 4
i5 10400F
RTX 3070 TI FE
Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 X 8GB) Memory Kit Pc4-25600 3200MHz DDR capped at 2666Mhz due to Intel's BS
2 SSD's
no extra fans or any RGB nonsense.

    Yeah, I'd say so..Return it to the retailer you bought it from, or, register the PSU and  RMA to EVGA.

    One thing you never wanna do though is use cables from one PSU with another one, especially different manufacturers even if they do fit, even cables from the same PSU manufacturer can be incompatible because of different pinouts on the unit..Some cables are compatible while others are not.

    I agree, It does sound like a faulty unit.
