RX 6600 Causes Computer to shut down

My computer shuts down on certain games like KCD, WT, and KTC. It load fine into the menu but will crash after a couple seconds after loading into my save. I got the GPU recently. Tried swapping it with my old RX 570 4gb and it worked fine.
R7 2700
16gb DDR4 3000Mhz
ASrock B450 Steel Legend
XFX Speedster 210 Swift RX 6600
Corsair CX750M
I'm not sure if it's a driver error or just the GPU but it's seriously driving me nuts.
Thanks for any Help!

It seems to have something to do with the drivers as I uninstalled them at one point and it worked fine but reinstalling them caused it happen again.

i just bought rx 6600 and i was also having crashes , after trying driver clean install and uninstalling google chrome what fixed it for me was disabling steam overlay and Radeon overlay. Dont know if it was one or the other but since i dont use them just left both disabled. Hope this helps.

I'm using 6600XT also, just today I have experienced random shutdown while gaming or even when not doing anything.


When I changed the PSU, the problem was solved, I was surprised but my PSU is 5 years old already, it's only 450W and comes from a cheap price ( SAMA 630 ) . My guess was PSU tend to gone bad over time

 

Hope this help you budd
