Hello All,
After gaming for a short while, my monitor starts to flash green and flicker and then a little while later it often stops working altogether, turning black like there is nothing attached, and my mouse and keyboard also go dark. Turning it back on afterwards, my graphics card can't be seen on device manager.
This problem has been going on for a while now however, it has always been the same. I attempted to fix it by updating drivers and the like but that never worked. I believe it is a power issue but am uncertain, however switching ports for PCIe slot doesn't work, the issue persists. Earlier this week I switched the PCIe power cables extended to my GFX card to an earlier part of a daisy train, however it only worked for 2 days, and then the issue has been coming a lot more frequently as I have tried to game, any ideas? I am thinking that I might need a new power supply, or new PCIe cables altogether.
