Hello, I had my build about 4 years ago and suddenly I have been getting black screens while gaming. and I tried a lot of methods but with no success.
My pc specs:
GPU: Palit GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER Dual 8GB
CPU: Processor Intel(R) Core (TM) i5-9400F CPU 2.90GHz
CPU Cooler: Intel Socket E97379-003 intel 4-Pin Connector
Hard drive: WESTERN DIGITAL 2TB WD20EZAZ
Motherboard: msi b365m pro-vdh / Bios version : 1.42
SSD: WD Blue Sata SSD 250 GB
RAM: Team T-Force DELTA RGB TUF GAMING (2×8) DDR4 2933 CL16 1.35v
PSU: Thermaltake Litepower LTP-0650P-2 650W Power Supply (I had it with the build 4 years ago)
Monitor: acer kg1 series 24 144hz kg241q
Chassis: THERMALTAKE V200 TEMPERED GLASS MID-TOWER, 3 FAN RGB SPECTRE
OS: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro Version 10.0.19045 Build 19045

Here is a list of the solutions I tried:
  • Running sfc/scan, DISM CheckHealth through CMD.
  • Updating Bios and resetting to default settings.
  • Disabled GPU driver through DDU in safe mode and did a clean installation of the latest driver.
  • setting power performance to the maximum.
  • I tried the GPU on my brother's pc, even did a stress test for about 15 minutes (temp was stable), and it ran without problems.
  • I cleaned all the dust from the components and checked all the cables.
  • after that I tried to run a game on the max setting the GPU utilization was about 99%-100% with 170-175 watts and the temperature was about 76-77. and after running for like 15 minutes with no problem when I opened the game menu to exit. it crashed!!
  • I even rested my windows and for some reason, it made it a lot worse.
  • And here is an error I found in Event Viewer recently

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

my build includes RTX2060 Super with 650 W Lite power Thermaltake PSU
How old is the PSU in your build? If you suspect your PSU to be the root cause of the issue, source(borrow, not buy a reliably built PSU with 550W of power at the entire system's disposal and see if the issue persists.

On second thoughts, please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.

Thank you for the welcoming and for replying.
