So, recently I installed a GTX 1060 3GB and every so often, mostly while playing games, my monitor just goes black for a couple seconds, and then back on, everything still works while the screen is black (sounds and such). I downloaded MSI Afterburner and the gpu temps are at 50C when gaming, and around 40C while just idling. Any help would be great! Thank you

Sorry. I do not have a solution.

I have the exact same symptoms and have not come across one. I suspect it's a graphics card driver failure and recovery. However, my card is quite old and probably not 100% compatible with Windows 10. I don't understand why your GTX 1060 would be experiencing it as well.
