If the GPU made it through furmarks torture test without signs of trouble I'd be surprised if the gpu is the problem. Possibly the motherboard/chipset as those issues can be hard to single out and the cpu, ram and gpu seem to be checking out as ok.
Then I guess I'm going to send back the motherboard and wait them to send a new one.. Then I hope my troubles are gone :coldsweat:

Same. I wish I could say otherwise, but I'm at the point where I'm saying "I dunno . . witchcraft? Sunspots? Angry Volcano God?"
I don't know maybe I did something wrong that I'm not able to see, neither the technician who took care of the PC..

Guess I will have to change motherboard and pray the new one is working and covid19-free 😱🧀

Fml, so for the first time I have witnessed a black screen WITHOUT reboot and without using the GPU in a "AAA" game. I was just chilling with Motorsport Manager, and then black screen, couldn't go back to desktop, anything, just..you know just black screen and I could hear pc ON, keyboard lights ON.. just screen off (it was working but showing a black screen). I tried alt f4, ctrl alt del and all these comandos to see if pc was working but none of these made screen work back again so i had to reboot. No message after reboot..

I changed the power strip just in case and I've been only able to enjoy 30 seconds of gaming experience 😀

I guess I will have to send back my MBD and pray new one makes a change ^^'
