#GPU error leads me to think I might need a new PSU

System:

8700k
1080 ti
Strix z370-f
Corsair HX750
Corsair H100i RGB pro xt

NOT overclocking.

I got a new Aorus GPU, plugged it in, worked fine. The day after I got a nvlddmkm.sys BSOD

Tried reinstalling Nvidia drivers, nothing changed. Unplugged the card, everything working fine on CPU graphics.

Next day, I get CPU over voltage error on startup. I go in the bios and see the attached photo.

Does this mean I have to get a new PSU?

nvlddmkm.sys is a process that happens either due to bad gpu drivers or motherboard and cpu not liking the ram. Its random and can happen on any gpu. i have this issue too but very light (only crashes apps, doesent shut down computer) and i have a 4080 from zotac. you can fix this temporarily by ddu nvidia drivers and reinstalling latest and have the error happen after a few days or find different ram. Seems to happen more on amd systems than intel probably because it seems to be less stable at higher speeds than intel. not sure about that core voltage for your cpu though in the bios

thats the error i get when it happens

Only new thing is the GPU, the ram and mobo stayed the same as they were for the past 5 years. And look at the voltages... The reading on the mobo temp...

I just want to make sure that it is clear that this system is 5 years old and the only new component is the GPU, which was bought second hand. My concern about it being a PSU issue is because of the voltages on the rails (see the attached photo above) and this Tom's Hardware thread.

like i said, i dont have enough knowledge in a psu potentially causing overvoltage on a motherboard im only here for nvdd error

i had a 3070 before this, my nvdd error only appeared after i switched to a 4080
