#Screen goes black randomly

I saw that when the fan for my gpu stopped working and would overheat the card. Didn’t matter what the usage was
Also: do you still hear audio? Does it come back?
Does the PC respond to a short power button press while blackscreen?
You might want to check the actual temperatures using a program like HWInfo or OpenHardwareMonitor.
For CPUs anything in below 80 is good, 85-100C is questionable.
GPUs tend to have 85 set as their limit but they shouldn't go blackscreen with the exception of extreme cases
it comes back a few seconds after going black
like 2-3 seconds duration
and happens randomly
and no audio
when it goes black
Hmm okay have you tried reinstalling your graphics driver?
Use DDU for uninstalling.
Download Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) - Remove AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL Graphics Drivers Cleanly - DDU is a driver removal utility that helps you completely uninstall AMD/NVIDIA graphics card drivers and packages from your system, leaving no leftovers behind, including registry keys, folders, files, and driver store.
If you run a Samsung g8 or g9 the black out issue is a common behaviour for them where in occasion they'll go totally black for a couple seconds then come right on back
GPU is NVIDIA GTX 1660 SUPER
