hi,

new here just joined as i thought most likely place to find an answer.im running a new hdplex 400 and a genuine dell 330w watt powerbrick bought direct from dell.


my system is basically 8700k + vega 56 both underclocked and undervolted to the point where steadystate gaming in battlefield v is showing 220w occasionally spiking to 240w on a kilawatt plug and after a fairly short period of time i get a hard black screen crash and the brick needs to be unplugged before i can use it again (brick is barely warm at this point and restarts as soon as plugged in again).


im thinking the brick tho brand new maybe faulty as i should have 90w headroom above even the apparent spikes of  240w or is this normal/some sort of vega thing? what sort of wattages do others see?
