hi I have a xfx rx 470 8gb card, sold on aliexpress, works fine for about 2yrs, but recently it is not working, when PC is working it goes black screen but PC continues to work as normal, music is working or films are playing in the background, then heard the device ejection sound, if I turn off the PC and turn it again PC comes to start screen and suddenly goes black screen and no signal, sometimes graphic card is not detecting by PC, not any error or beep code by the motherboard, but no visual and PC continues to work fans spinning.

so far I have tried cleaning the card, and tried another PCI slot, tried PCI riser card, and not success.

but yesterday I again cleaned it and apply new thermal pads and paste, and put it in and flash bios, after that it work for one day without any issue, I play COD WZ in 50-75fps. but today morning again it getting same issue.
