I am currently in the process of waiting for a new GPU as the current card in my setup is out of the warranty window. I am pretty sure this is just a graphics card issue but wanted to be sure I exhausted all steps.
SETUP - CPU/MB are brand new, RAM/PSU is fairly new and GPU is an RMA replacement from MSI.
SYMPTOMS -
Whether I am playing games or just doing regular work on the computer my display goes black and my GPU fans kick up all the way to max. I can hear whatever I was watching/doing and can even hear keyboard commands like windows key
ATTEMPTED SOLUTIONS -

WILLING TO TRY:
I have not used DDU as I read if you can manually uninstall drivers dont bother but if that is suggested I will try
I do not know how to read the EVENT VIEWER but I did not see anything other than when I force shut down my computer (possibly something I can do with that if anyone knows a bit about the Event Viewer).

ATTEMPTED SOLUTIONS -
- PC has no iGPU so I cant test if it's solely my graphics card.
- Reseated everything (cpu, nvme, psu, gpu, and ram)
- Used different RAM sticks in different variations and tested memory
- CMOS Reset
- XMP/OC is off and always have been (RAM 2133/3000 Mhz)
- Manually uninstall all GPU drivers and reinstall to current
- Updated BIOS to current
- Updated all motherboard drivers to current
- Monitored CPU/GPU temps through multiple different software (MSI and third party) and all temperatures were normal while gaming/working
- Windows + Ctrl + Shift + B command will make the sound but monitors don't respond and GPU stays on full fan speed
- I have reset windows and done pretty much everything above a second time when the problem came about again.
