Hello everyone, I need some help determining a problem with my system.
Just this week, my PC has begun crashing in games, the screen goes black and the fans spin up to maximum, or the PC just shuts off completely for a few minutes.
This is concerning me because my PC serves as my gaming system and for school work (university). I started to play a couple games and suddenly the screen goes black, this has happened in Red Dead Redemption 2, Modern Warfare, and House Flipper. I feel like it is either a GPU issue or a PSU issue, or a cooling issue because a couple white LEDs started blinking when the system shut off, one on the GPU and one on the motherboard.. I will list my full specs below, tell me what you guys think or if you've had a similar problem. Any help is appreciated!
My Custom PC:
CPU | Ryzen 7 2700X w/ Wraith Prism Cooler
MBD | MSI B450M Bazooka V2
RAM | Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x8GB 3200MHz C16
GPU | Gigabyte RTX 2080 Windforce 8G
PSU | Corsair Vengeance 650M 650W 80+ Silver
SSD 1 | Samsung 970 EVO Plus 500GB
SSD 2 | Samsung 860 EVO 500GB

Extras | LED Lighting Strip
All drivers currently up to date.
