Hello all,
I have started running into a problem where while I am gaming, my graphics card will stop outputting a video signal to my monitors. The rest of my PC still will be on and I can see lights and hear fans still running, as well as still hear game audio. I have tried different displays with no help, and have tried different games so far but that is about the extent of my own troubleshooting. Here is my build in full:

CPU: Intel core i3-10100F 3.6 GHz quad core processor
Motherboard: Asus PRIME H510M-E micro ATX LGA 1200 motherboard
Memory: Patriot viper steel 16GB (1 x 16 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 memory
Storage: Crucial BX500 480 GB 2.5" solid state drive
video card: MSI MECH 2X radeon RX 6500 XT 4GB video card
PSU: Thermaltake smart 500 W 80+ certified ATX power supply

Any and all help/suggestions are greatly appreciated

That PSU should be nowhere near a modern PC. I know that I am using one, but I am planning to replace it at some point. I am not saying that replacing the PSU will fix your issue, but it needs to be replaced regardless.

Unplug one of the monitors, and/or then the other and see if it stops happening.
