9800x3d issue

- Start date
I tried that too, just trying another graphics card now which doesnt need any additional power to rule out card, which was fine in old pc, i had taken expo off to back to stock settings, next will be changing the PSU over, I have exactly same one in another pc.
Update:-
Okay, so i tried 2 old graphics cards in this PC, a Nvidia 970 and a Nvidia GT710 ( last one requires no power connectors), and they work fine, So can we all agree it must be a PSU issue?, before I spend the bucks
Is it worth trying my other PC power supply which is the same one but a newer version of it.
Only other thing I havent done is updated the bios, but I don't think that's an issue.
We can all agree that the PC Parts I brought all fine.

Does sound like the PSU if using different cards that require less power or no extra power at all.
The PSU could have been fine with the old system but the new 1 could be more demanding or having larger power spikes causing the issues.
I would try changing the PSU but if its exactly the same you may find it doing the same thing if it cannot supply enough power to the system unless your current 1 is faulty.
To confirm though, is it 1 x cable from PSU to GPU or 2 x cables from PSU to GPU as this could also be the issue. using 2 instead of 1 spreads the demand for the PSU

I would then look at getting a new PSU or seeing if you can borrow a different PSU which is a different brand\higher wattage
I have just bought this PSU at Christmas for my 9800X3D

Using a 4070Ti, 32GB of ram, 1 x NVME drive, AIO, Gigabyte Eagle X870 motherboard.
The above PSU supports the new Nvidia connector (If you ever change) and has 2 x 8 pin cables from the PSU.
New psu time by the looks of it mate
This is not really related to your specifics OP, but.....
I had a Seasonic Ultra Titanium PSU at 750w. All was well. Bought a 3080Ti. Ok the dots are there, as I joined them.
But, it took some tome to figure out the transient spikes of power demands from that GPU was causing the PSU's OCP to kick in and switch off the PC.
At the time the "transient spike" issues were somewhat unknown.
Seasonic just changed / upgraded the PSU for me to a different model with more suitable OCP built in.
For me in that situation, it was the OCP of the PSU just doing its job, but not allowing what that particular cards, and others at the time, were causing to work properly.

Had issues with the 3090 and an EVGA PSU. Was more than the recommended, but the spikes on 3090 was an issue for a lot of good PSUs. Moved to Seasonic since then. Superb PSUs.
At that time I had the 750w PSU for my main PC I had not got to the point of over provisioning with the PSU. Some PSU's would run more efficient the closer that you got to their rated capacity, or at least it seemed that way.
However, here we are today with power and consumption still being scaled up by each generations release, well at least its potential. Although AMD have done well, compared to that of Intel, with their typical loading for their x3D CPU's.

1 other thing to test, my old rx6800 would cause the pc to reboot in game under high load, at first i thought it was the psu so i swapped it to a known good unit that worked with a 7800xt for testing and it still caused a full reset. i finally diagnosed after a while that the gpu was boosting too high on gpu clock and not giving enough voltage to itself. as a result i locked the max clocks to 2250 (it was boosting to like 2350) and the machine hasn't suffered a reboot in game since. not saying this is your issue, but certainly worth looking at, maybe the 9800x3d is allowing the gpu to work harder than the 6700k did and this is happening as a result.
My 6800XT Sapphire would crash with any RT enabled. Yes and yes. Had the 3090 for a while, sold for a profit, got the 6800XT. Yes, the 6800XT isn’t the best for RT, but as I was playing at 1440p single player, the performance penalty wasn’t something that would be a problem for me. Just running anything with RT on and would get a crash. Same for 3D Mark when RT was on. Clearly my GPU was broken. The delta was horrible, tried to tighten the screws to sort the pressure, as it was done poorly at the factory, got the RMA refused. Lesson learnt.

I had a similar issue once, turned out to be a faulty ethernet cable.
