I recently built my first pc, and I've run into my first big problem. It has been running with no issues for about 3 months. I just got an ultrawide 144hz monitor. While testing out settings on a game, it crashed occasionally, but it was never overclocking the cpu or gpu - I kept the specs up on a second monitor, and the gpu never got over 70 degrees and fans weren't at 100%. I also used Driver Easy (pro) to update all my drivers when it crashed a few times just to be safe.
Today, the game crashed, and the screen went black. When I tried to reboot it, it turned on completely normal, but without signal to either monitor. Nothing has worked to get the monitor on, so I can't do any testing.
I've tried a bunch of different things - different DP and HDMI cables, switching ram slots, taking out and reinserting bios cmos battery, unplugging the power source to monitor and pc, etc. Nothing has worked. Everything on the pc turns on, all the fans run except for on the gpu - but sometimes those two gpus fans don't run on that right away until I actually get into windows anyway. Really nervous that I completely wrecked something. Before I go out and have to somehow find another gpu (it took forever to get mine in the first place), does anyone have any ideas?
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
GPU: Zotac 1070 ti mini
MB: MSI Tomahawk b450 max ii
PSU: bequiet Pure Power 11 600W 80+ gold
16 gb ram
I bought the GPU used, so I'm a little worried it wasn't taken care of and someone scammed me as a pc newbie, but it has been working well over the past 3 months prior to this.
