A description of my problem. I get some stutters when playing on games at the lowest setting that my gpu (rx 480 8gb) would normally be able to play on the highest settings with good fps. Did OCCT 3d test and furmark and my monitor will go black with no signal, fans will ramp up immediately after clicking the stress test button and I would have to turn the pc off and on. I can run Superposition benchmark without issues though, my gpu temps do not go above 60c in extreme 1080p setting benchmark
I thought it could be my PSU so I tried it on a different system but still using my peripherals and tried to run OCCT. Same issue, no signal and fans ramp up upon clicking the stress test button. Was planning on taking the gpu apart and replace the thermal pads and paste but I don't seem to be having any problem on temps so I put that on hold first. I was able to run OCCT 3d test by reducing my power limit from +50% to -10% although not sure for how long. I only ran it for about 5 mins.
Other things I've done
Stress test CPU and RAM (stable)
Changed HDMI cables
Updated Bios
Turned off link state in power plan
DDU and reinstalled radeon drivers
Any other things I missed or worth trying out?
PC specs:
Ryzen 5800X
MSI Gaming X RX 480 8gb
G.Skill 4x8GB Flare X
Seasonic Prime Platinum 750w v1
