Hi, I've run into a problem that I can't seem to find an answer for. A few months ago I had my computer on while I was away and I used a software to remotely get something I had there and mail it to myself. It when I launched the software and connected to my computer nothing would show from either of my monitor, completely black.
A few weeks ago I was watching a video on youtube and played Hearthstone on the side and it just shut down. I could hear the audio from my headsett, but no visuals and my monitors told me it was no signal.
This weekend the same thing happened but more frequently, 2 times saturday and 3 times sunday. Bear in mind I was not running any software that could have been too stressfull for the GPU.

Specs;
- MSI GeForce GTX 980 Gaming 4GB LE
- ASUS Z170-P motherboard
- 2x8GB HyperX Fury DDR4 2133MHz RAM
- Corsair CX750M, 750W PSU
- Intel Core i5-6600K Skylake prosessor

Both my monitors only support HDMI and the GPU has 1 HDMI slot so I have a HDMI to DP converter for the second monitor. Both monitors are the same model.

Everything is 1.5 years old so it shouldn't be like this already.
 
Solution
Try switching your computer and monitor to a different room and use a different outlet. I know it has nothing to do with the remote access, but it is a common issue with these symptoms, and may just be a coincidence.
 

Is this the GPU problem.Try getting one of your friend's GPU for testing . Also try getting a monitor as well.
