I recently had a GPU become faulty and since I replaced it, every time I shutdown from Win10, the system turns itself off and automatically restarts after a couple of seconds, so I have to pull the plug out.

I've cleared CMOS, with and with the battery removed, Turn on fast start up unticked, it's got the latest BIOS, System failure auto restart unticked, the problem still exists with the CPU/GPU at stock.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Windows 10 64 bit - updated today
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1050Ti WindForce OC
Basic 81 Prolimatech
ELITE BLACK 16GB (2X8GB) DDR3
Asus H81-Plus
Superflower Golden Green HX350W "80 plus gold"
PENTIUM K ANNIVERSARY G3258 @ 4G
Samsung Evo 250GB 850 SSD
 
My restarts were cured with a new CMOS battery. The one ASUS supplied with a new C6H Rog mobo did not cut it.

Something cheap to try anyway.
 
"CMOS"/RTC battery is obvious target.
But with also that broken GPU is that PSU as old as motherboard/CPU?

Because it has cheap third tier capacitors really badly positioned for cooling.
In fact in one of the hottest places in PSU sandwhiched between 12V rectifier heatsink and 3,3/5V DC-DC daughterboard!

That's pretty much purposely made break up timer.
Certainly wouldn't trust it more than 3-4 years in active use PC.
