Hey guys,I think I've got an issue with my gpu.It started around a month ago,until then it was working perfectly.While gaming sometimes after a while(coulde be 15 min,could be 3 hours) the screen goes black and i have to shut the power from psu button(since i cant even restart it).The pc is still running with the black screen,all the fans spinning etc but i cant do anything.It doesn't happen in all games,just some:witcher 3(first game i encountered this)batman arkham city,prison architect,etc.At first,i thought it's the psu that doesn't supply enough power(have it for 3 yrs) but it should just completely power off.So my bet riht now is the gpu.Any solutions?*sorry for long post*
 


Well give us a run down of your system and specs.

Operating system version.
GPU
CPU
Motherboard.
Driver version.

Did anything or did you update something before this started happening? new hardware or software..etc

Have you tried uninstalling all drivers, installing new ones and testing?


 


Well
Windows 10 pro
AMD FX 4130
AMD Radeon R9-380
Mobo MSI 970A-G43
8GB Ram
GPU Drivers Radeon 16.7.1
Didn't update anything hardware before it happened.Just a month ago those things started happening.Shame on me because i was too lazy to reinstall drivers.
Just this morning I tried booting up the pc and windows kept crashing with error "inaccesible boot device"(Fixed that ,now runs fine).It's strange tho since I've had this exact setup for at least one year and I never encountered this problem,only now after all this black screen thing appeared.Is there any chance they might be related?
