Question Display goes blank randomly ?

Hi,

I recently built a cheap gaming PC with 2nd hand graphics card.

Processor: Intel i5 12400F
Motherboard : Gigabyte H610M H V2 (rev. 1.0)
RAM: CORSAIR Vengeance 32GB RAM (1x32GB) DDR5 DRAM 5200MHz / CMK32GX5M1B5200C40
Storage: 1TB Samsung 970 Pro NVME, 2 TB HDD, 3 More old hard disks 500GB, 250GB, 150GB
PSU: Corsair RM650

I bought the 2nd Graphics Card "Galax One Click OC RTX 3070" from a local computer hardware shop. I tested the graphics card on the shop and ran Furmark for benchmarks (15-20 mins) to ensure it works and no artifacts. And it worked well and didn't have any issues at that time. Now my display goes off randomly and I can't figure out why. Sometimes it works for 2 days straight gaming/YouTube/browsing without issue and sometimes it gives issues 4 times a day. I have to reset the PC to get the display back. I used DisplayCable 1st now changed to HDMI. The issue is still there.

I suspect It is the Hardware issue in the Graphics card as I used a GTX 970 (with HDMI) for a month and didn't have any display issues.

I need your help and expertise.

As you've mentioned, the system was built recently, how old is the unit in your build?

Did you run DDU to remove all GPU drivers from your platform prior to replacing the GTX970 with the RTX3070?

Motherboard : Gigabyte H610M H V2 (rev. 1.0)
BIOS version for your motherboard?

PSU Corsair RM650 was bought in arround 2018. I got it as a replacement for thr TX650 in warranty. Never had any issue with this PSU.

Yes, I had replaced the drivers via DDU and NVCleaninstall. Changed the windows (from 11 to 10) too.
