[SOLVED] After restarting PC getting no signal from monitors and having to force shutdown to fix it.

[Brian_246]

First off my Specs
CPU: Ryzen 2600x
MOBO: ROG STRIXx470-F Gaming
GPU: MSI RTX 2070
PSU : EVGA 650 GQ 80+
Storage: 1TB m.2 (C: drive) 1TB HDD 256 GB SSD

The Issue: I've been trying to wrap my head around this one but, I am unsure of what's wrong. (I believe it is the PSU) but haven't touched PC in 3 weeks since I was out of the country. I updated my GPU drivers and did a clean install once complete 1/2 monitors was black. it worked fine and I was able to see and use the taskbar however above that was all black no screensaver or anything. doing a restarting my system it left the pc in a strange state, both monitors showed no signal but my pc looked working and operating as it should. after a hard shutdown and reboot everything is back to normal. this has been going on for quite a while now and other times when my system loses audio or cannot connect to the internet doing a reset cases that same issue. any ideas on what it could be?
Thanks in advance

P.S just did my specks on PC part picker and my estimated wattage usage is 444W

I would try reseating the GPU, memory and all the mobo power connectors and see if that helps any

also try a bootable linux usb like ubuntu in live mode, I use it on every new and refurb build just to give the hardware a quick health check - if that works could be something else wrong with windows itself

I'll try that just b4 reseating happened again when getting out of hibernate/sleep mode. since this issue doesn't happen too often I'll report in a few days. going to constantly let my system Sleep/hibernate for different intervals.

after doing some testing and reseating the gpu the issue hasn't occurred at all thank you!
