I'm at my wit's end. I can't figure out what is going on.

System Specs:
Win 10, Asus GTX 1080Ti, Ryzen 3600, X370 Asus Motherboard, EVGA 750W Gold PSU, Corsair 3000 2x8 RAM
Connected via Displayport


Issue: Black screen, no display crash occurs with sound still working, at least for the next few minutes. Happens when gaming, as well as just watching youtube videos and whatnot.

This has been going on for about a week or so, occasionally stopping for a couple days and then starting up.


Troubleshooting:
Reinstalled display drivers (DDU)
Uninstalled MSI Afterburner Completely
Ran Memtest - no errors
Cleaned interior of computer as well as checked all cables securely attached
Updated BIOS

Additional info:
It is strange, because sometimes the problems seems to go away, or seems to be caused by random events. I've ran a full 100 percent CPU and GPU burn in and it works fine sometimes, and other times it crashes when watching Youtube videos.
It seems that once the problems starts, it begins to occur with more frequent regularity.
It started today when it crashed out of R6 Siege. I rebooted, rejoined the match and within a minute of loading in it crashed again. After that, I ran a memtest and the computer was on for about 30 minutes before it crashed while I was watching a video.

Final info: While finishing up this thread, it crashed as well.
