it mostly happens in loading screens sometimes the screen turns black but i can still hear the audio but sometimes i hear like electric noises or the audio just cuts
i tried reinstalling the Nvidia drivers. i installed the latest ones and still had the problem so i rolled back to older versions and still had the problem.
idk what to do plz help should i change my gpu? or can i fix this problem?

I'm pretty sure it's your psu. Make and model of your psu?

Looks like dead gpu.
Try with integrated gpu first (remove gtx 1050 from system). It should work normally.

Then get a new graphics card.

ahh that sucks! i'm thinking of getting the rx 5700 xt is it a good card? i've heard a lot of complains over the drivers

With RX 5700 XT you'll need a new 600W PSU also.

Before removing the card have a look at the back of your pc their should be a socket for your monitor to plug into the integrated card if you got one , if it works the graphics wont be very good but if the screen still looks like your photo then that will definitely confirm its the psu dying.

A local store killed my psu because they put in a better card on one of my rigs but did not check its damands on psu.

The rule of thumb for a card is this , check recommended psu then add 10% for high demand when screen gets "busy" and background running processes.

it works fine with the integrated even under heavy use
