New monitor causing PC reboots when loading games

Just got a Rog swift which is 1440p, g-sync, 144hz monitor, from my old 1080p monitor.

Now, when I load up my games theres a 50/50 chance it will force reboot my pc, any ideas why?

Thanks.

It does not crash when using my old 23inch 1080p monitor, only when I use the Rog Swift, even if I downscale to 1080p resolution for the game/s.

I did not receive the correct Power plug with my monitor, I think it was American or something, therefore we changed the plug part to the correct voltage UK power plug.

Could that cause it?

Yes its a pre made plug, and I'll give that a shot now and report back, thanks.

Re-installing the drivers seems to have done the trick! ty
