Hello everyone, I just built a computer for a friend and finished installing windows and all the other necessary drivers.
The problem is, when we tried running a game (In this case Valorant), as soon as we press play the screen turns black and soon after the monitor loses signal.
The problem only arises in this case. Generally, when not running games, everything else works well.
We have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the graphics drivers, even tried an older version, but it didnt solve the issue.
I also tried using the other GPU connector from the power supply. It also didnt help.
Im starting to be concerned that this is a hardware issue but I cant find much information online, hence this post.

Any ideas how I can fix it?

The computer's specs are as follows:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600x
MOBO: MSI B450 Gaming Plus Max
PSU: Corsair CV450 450W
GPU: Gigabyte GeForce RTX 3060 12GB GDDR6 Eagle OC (rev. 2.0)

I am offering an update here, the problem apparently lies with Valorant. We have just tried Overwatch 2 and it works fine.
The moderators can delete this post if its not necessary, I'll leave it up in case someone else has a similar issue tho.
