Hello y'all, it's been a while since I've had to use this wonderful site but I've run into a problem.
Last night, I was playing some late night Subnautica, per usual, when suddenly my PC shut off. Now, it shut off when I stretched my legs, which led me to believe that I had simply just accidentally powered off my Power strip with my feet, but upon booting up my PC again, I noticed my monitor was still dark, with no lights at all.
This led me to believe something is wrong with my GPU, so I opened up my computer and after some tests, found that my GPU would power on correctly for 10 seconds, and then the fans would slowly reduce in speed until they were back off again. I am not sure what the problem is, I have unplugged the PCI/E connectors in and out to no avail, and even took out the GPU to dust and popped it back in just to have the same problem.
I really don't know what the problem would be in this case, if the GPU was fried wouldn't it just not turn on?
My pc specs are:
EVGA GTX 970 SSC
Intel Core i7 7700k 4.2ghz
CPU Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
Western Blue digital 1TB HDD
MSI Z270 SLI PLUS LGA 1151 MOBO
Corsair CX500 Power supply
Asus VX238H Monitor
G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4
Any help is appreciated!
