Tested kernel 4.14 with The Witcher 3: after ~20 minutes the PC shut down. This time I noticed that GPU fan were spinning very fast: 1800 RPM at 70°C.

I'm very confused... :|

You might want to check that the heatsink is attached to the GPU correctly, just to be sure. Though I would expect any game to crash if that was the case.

I just bought a new PSU (a Seasonic Focus+ 750W) and the problem seems solved. I haven't tested it thoroughly, but some quick test seemed very positive. I did better cable management, too.

What is very strange is that my previous PSU was perfectly fine for the hardware in this PC, and worked flawlessy anyway...

This RX 580 (is a RX480 OC and RX 480 have around 180w very similar tdp of GTX 1080) is a very hungry tdp card for this reason psu could solve your issues

And add other components like as oc cpu

QuoteUse the AMD drm-next-4.20-wip

Does anyone build proper Debian packages for it? I don't want to use Ubuntu repos.
