Hello,
So I have been having this issue lately (Probably since the last week) where the display output goes blank when I start a game or sometimes even before booting to desktop. I get the dreaded "no signal" on my monitor. The weird thing is that when this happens my PC remains on, I know this for a fact because the RGB lighting including the one on my TUF RTX 3080 OC and processor are still running. I can even operate the keyboard. I did not see any sign of power supply tripping or a system shutdown. Just a blank screen with the PC still working. I have to manually do a hard reboot to get it to boot again. One observation is that when this happens, the subsequent tries lights up the white error LED on my mobo indicating a GPU failure. This happens for a few tries cant say how many exactly, but then it does recover after a few reboot attempts and I get a display out. When I do manage to get it up and running, I tried running some games and it works fine again! (I dont see any artifacting or anything to suggest that the GPU is the issue, I get the FPS I am supposed to get in all games), until the cycle repeats!.
I have tried nearly all troubleshooting procedures, Windows fresh install, DDU cleanup and reinstall, dial back to default settings, do a ram test to eliminate possibility of dead ram sticks, reseat the GPU on the PCI-E slot and trying another slot etc.. I also tried installing the GPU on another PC and observed the same behavior, thus eliminating a mobo failure, Although I still used the same power supply that I use on my main PC for this test so I am not sure if that is the culprit. I am out of options at the moment and desperate!, Can someone please suggest anything else I can do to eliminate few other possible loopholes?. Part of me thinks that it might be the PSU because mine has been running for over 6 years and is due for a change, but part of me thinks that`s not the issue as the PC does not restart or shut down by itself. Please help guys..
Spec:
RTX 3080 TUF OC
Seasonic X760W Gold
Ryzen 5800x
Asus B550F Gaming Motherboard
Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x8GB 3000Mhz
