I have randomly occuring blackscreens. So far in the last 10 hours I've had 2 blackscreens. This started happening after I swapped out the PSU and the GPU. Did the full DDU and installed my drivers from the AMD homepage.
The whole monitor just turns black, the pc stays on, the monitor is not like "turned off" black, I can tell it's on. Nothing is responsive tho. The power nor the reset button works. Have to turn off the PSU/unplug the cable and restart the PC that way. The first time it blackscreened, when I booted it back up, on windows startup, it started repairing C: drive (SSD). Took about 3 minutes.
Specs:
Cpu: i5-9600k
Mb: msi z390 a-pro
Gpu: msi rx 5700xt mech 8gb
Psu: fractal design ion 660W 80+ platinum
Ram: gskill 16GB 3200Mhz
Got 2 SSDs and 1HDD
Monitor: MSI MAG241C 144Hz connected to my GPU with the included DP cable. As far as I can tell, not a monitor/ cable problem. Could be drivers or anything else associated with GPU/PSU.
