Not sure if this is the right forum and it’s a long post ahead so I’m just going to get into it. A few weeks ago decided to upgrade my 680, to a new 2070 super from Nvidia site. Got it running, played the new modern warfare for a day or two, when I got a crash, it looked like this first picture before black screening and requiring a hard reset

Since it happened while playin CoD with RTX on I figured it was a game crash so I reset and played more, happened again but this time I got the second image in that link. From here I figured cod wasn’t worth the hassle and so I hopped on Risk of Rain 2 and before I knew it I got a black screen crash again, only now it won’t boot into windows. On start I will get a motherboard splash screen, windows logo with loading symbol below, then black. Here is where I thought the gpu was faulty so I put it in my roommates comp and starts up and runs fine. I put my old 680 in mine and been using it fine. I could be ignorant here but I wondered if I needed to reinstall windows but it ran fine on my old gpu so I felt it wasn’t that.
So first thought is the old PSU can’t handle the new gpu so I go buy a new one, no good, so now I’m thinking my old motherboards pcie slot is unable to handle the gpu (all older parts are like 9years old). So I went and get a new Ryzen 7 2700x and new motherboard and yesterday took it all apart and rebuilt. To my dismay I get black screen after windows loading. If I go into bios and do a reset from there sometimes I can load into windows but it’s locked at a low res and won’t let me switch, I can’t even see the entire desktop.
I called it here last night and am currently at work and figured I’d post and get other opinions. Only thing I can think is reinstall windows or update driver. But as stated I can run my 680 fine so idk about windows and I did a clean driver install before the crashing (not ddu) and now that I can’t get into windows consistently not sure best way to go about fixing it. I’m at the point where I want to test in roommates computer again to see if it starting the first time was a fluke but that will have to wait because holiday.
