Yeah computers can be a pia, they are complicated lol.

I had my powersupply do something similar to that before. So annoying I thought it was my graphics card first because it happened when I played games. But turned out the graphics card needed more power and the power supply was getting too old for that kind of run.

Took me a few buys and returns to figure it out XD.
