I just went and replaced my EVGA 850w GA Gold with an ASUS ROG Thor 850w.  My computer is now running games at +50 instead of -50 clock speed, no power issues at all.  Only had a slight panic attack when my computer wouldn't power on, but all is good.
 
Lol, really disappointed this even happened to begin with.  Learning experience I guess.

Yeah my brand new EVGA 850w GA couldn't handle a 3080 FE and had awful coil whine... Corsair 850 fixed the issue.

Just grabbed an EVGA 850 P2. Hope that fixes it

 
It should. 

Didn't fix anything. Still restarting with the 850 p2 in. Did I just get a new PSu for nothing. Central Computers will take it back but I pay a 15% restock fee.

 
Now that is odd...
 
Try reinstalling the drivers, use DDU to wipe them out completely then reinstall.
 
Also check for a MB Bios Update.
 
Make sure Windows is updated also.
 
 

yep none of it worked. I want my money and 2070 back haha.

Put your new card on EBay and you'll get your money back, a nice new 2070, and some change left over!

two power supplies now don't work so I'm thinking it's the card. Tried afterburner. After the stepup fee, shipping, and paying for a new PSU I didn't need sucked pretty bad. I'd hate to pass on that bad juju. I'll just call tomorrow and have the junk RMA'd.

RMx series right?

I have a RMX 850W coming in tomorrow so I'll post if it resolves my problems. Hope I'm not like the poor soul earlier who still had problems after replacing their PSU.

Tty using ddu to delete old drivers and install current ones

I'll test my 850 G1+ and keep you guys updated once my 3080 FTW3 Ultra arrives.
