Graphics Card Dying?

[Zethran]

Within the last 5 days every time i start any game be it overwatch or tf2 it works for about 3 minutes or less than the entire screen goes black and all of my monitors lose connection to my computer. The sound also bugs out and just extends whatever noise was made when it crashed. It has also done it when im not even playing anything but thats less frequent. I think this means my card is just reaching its last legs but I dont know if this could also be a PSU issue. I cleaned the card and my computer of dust and such recently to see if that would help but it didnt really make a difference. Thanks for any help.

These are my specs.

Run a GPU stress test such as Furmark to verify GPU temperatures and stability. If temperatures are going above 90c-95c, overheating may be your problem. Reapplying thermal paste in this case may help. I was able to resolve a similar issue by reapplying paste earlier this week.

It crashes whenever i start a stress test lmao. From temp monitoring it seems to be pretty cool most the time so sadly i dont think thats the issue.

Remove your Radeon card and try with integrated GPU.

Well i took a look at the GPU power pins again and it seems i missed to notice that a few of them have had their plastic covers completely melted off. This would make sense with how it just dies randomly, its power intake was just unreliable it seems. I dont know how or why this happened but the piece is modular so not to hard to replace but man i need to find a better graphics card. I think theres a reason they stopped selling this one pretty quick.
