January 15, 20251 yr Recently upgraded my server which had no GPU to having a PNY P4000 for Plex docker hardware transcoding. After installing the drivers as a plug in and disabling/enabling them, the server would power cycle and come back on after around 20 minutes of up time. This happened a few time and now the server is doing a parity check while I haven't opened any dockers or VMs today. From what I gathered, I believe it may be a power issue seeing as nothing else in the system changed even though I have a 750W power supply for only 3 hard drives, the P4000, and a 7800X3D. Before buying a new one I wanted to ask here if there is something else that could possibly be wrong. I also attached the syslog file to this topic. Thanks syslog2.txt
January 15, 20251 yr Community Expert Server rebooting on its own is almost always a hardware issue, power would be a good suspect.

Seems like nothing is going on now that it is doing the parity check. Will update once the docker is started and GPU is used and whether I will buy a new PSU.

Server crashed again this morning at 11:58 EST. New 1000W power supply installed which is overkill. All components minus CPU/cooler and NVMe have been changed as well. Not sure if CPU is thermal throttling; the pairing is a 7800X3D with a Thermalright Peerless Assassing, which should be fine or so I thought. Could it be something in Bios perhaps? IOMMU is on but not sure if anything else needs to be changed. Full Specs: AMD Ryzen 7800X3D 32 GB G. Skill DDR5 6000mt/s CL32 memory Nvidia Quadro P4000 1000W Corsair Power Supply 1TB 980 Pro PCIe 4.0x4 NVMe 1x18 TB Toshiba NAS drive 2x16 TB Seagate NAS drive Like I said, EVERYTHING has been swapped except for the NVMe and the CPU/CPU Cooler. No components over a year old either. Not sure where to go from here.

Can't really test this because I haven't been able to replicate issue in my own. Seems to happen every week or so; will update in ≈ 2 unless it happens sooner
January 23, 20251 yr Community Expert Hope it works out. If not, JorgeB is probably right about hardware.
