It doesn't happen with everygame, for example:
I can keep playing cs:go for hours without a problem but when I start up pugb it crashes every 20 minutes, same with fifa17.
The screen goes black and says that it isn't getting an input I can still hear sound and when I press keys on my keyboard I can hear the reponses.

My Setup

i7-4790k
GTX 970
Maximus Ranger V2
H100i watercooling
8GB DDR3 Ram

Any help is greatly appreciated

this is a well known issue for Nvidia cards, usually driver related but there are loads of possible causes (and possible solutions) on Google, way to many to list here unfortunately.

Google Nvidia black screen and work your way through some of the suggested fixes.
