Am going to say that i do not trust the Dell h875ef-00 PSU I dont know what happening with your GPU but do think your PSU is low quality and abit risky because if this breaks one day it could take out your expensive graphic card and such!

Have you made sure that all these slots are full in red circle and not loose and made sure that gpu is in the pci slot and fitted correctly

Whats your system specs? If you have, let's say (besides cpu and gpu) only have 1ssd and 1hdd installed a 500W is enough. if you have many drives, many casefans i'd aim for 600W

EDIT: also because of you mentioning mediamarkt, I assume you live in either germany or austria, in which case i'd recommend getting the psu over amazon. deliverytimes are excellent with amazon prime (you can create free 30-day trial account) which will arrive the next day in most cases. also you have more to choose from as mediamarkt often hasn't that much in stock

With the 1080ti you need atleast 600W Or More!

no that's just not true. yes it's what manufacturers say but a system without much stuff in there besides cpu+gpu+ssd will never even come close to drawing 600W. a high quality (gold rated +) 500W is enough.
