When Im playing something like Overwatch, everything cuts out for a moment. I have to unplug then plug back in my headphones to bring back the audio for the game. I thought it was a power supply problem. Then I upgraded it and it keeps on happening. I really dont know what It could be now. Maybe a CPU problem idk.

Could be that the no name PSU you had damaged your motherboard and is now causing issues with your USB ports under certain conditions. Some of the lower end EVGA units aren't that great either, I'd need to know more than just a wattage. Your board didn't get many BIOS updates, most of them are just to add support to newer CPUs so I'm not sure if flashing your BIOS will help. You may want to do a clean reinstall of Windows to eliminate any potential software problems that might be causing this.

Gtx 750 ti SC

What cuts out?
Keyboard, Mouse, and headset. When my headset cuts out i have to alt+tab and unplug and plug my usb headset back in for the audio to start working. But my keyboard and mouse come back to use in a matter of seconds.

Nothing is wrong with my USB ports. They work fine until i get into a very highly intensive games. But most of the time it only happens when i play Overwatch and BF1 thats it. It dosnt do it for Arma 3, MKX, Call Of Duty, BeamNG.Drive, Nothing..

My old one was a unbranded stock 350w power supply. I upgraded to a 500w EVGA Power supply.

If there is nothing wrong with the USB ports then you don't have an issue. But USB headphones not working, and mouse/keyboard not working sure sounds like it's caused by the USB ports. "they work fine until" means they don't work fine or there would be no "until". So try BIOS update, check for chipset drivers, USB drivers if your system had them available, clean Windows setup to make sure it's not software issue, next would be swapping the motherboard.
