there is a issue on my pc when i play games monitor suddenly goes black and says no signal, and im getting dc from discode and all but the pc fans and lights are still working
tried reset the graphics drivers from the pressing keys but only a beep sound comes.
drivers are also upto date

ryzen 3600
rtx 2060
msi vdh pro wifi MB
 
Does the computer remain on and only the display turns off? Or does everything turn off except for the fans and RGB lights? Honestly though, with 8 fans and the setup you got going, I'm surprised a 550 PSU is enough.

If it's only the RGBs and the fans that turn on, it's most likely the PSU. If it's just the display that turns off but the computer still runs it's likely a bad GPU display/hdmi port or your card is starting to go. My best guesses.

Hmmm. No, that shouldn't happen. Not if it's a simple display port issue. Shouldn't have any bearing on disconnecting you from anything. Simple cable issue would be strictly display only. If it was a GPU/driver issue the game would crash, not disconnect you. Well, I wish I knew the answer. Strictly from an IT learning standpoint, this is a little intriguing.

To recap, everything turns on fine, everything stays on, except when you play a game your display shuts off AND you get disconnected from the game and discord and what not. Hmmm. I'll see if I can dig around while we both await an answer.
