I'm a video editor (1080/4k) and am going from someone who
“Plays games now and then”
To booting up my favorite to unwind after work!!!

I play basic-ish games,
Unturned, Minecraft, Trackmania, and a few others

The issue

While playing Trackmania for around 30 minutes, my screen went black oh!

The pc is still running and I have audio
And my display has power

Full restart and it's fine! The display is there and everything works!

But again, after 30 minutes in any game now it goes to a black screen
and I have to reboot to fix it

Well, now I'm thinking it overheated! The fan for the GPU died AGES ago and my idle temps are around 45c with load temps in the 80+c range

So i got a “fan”
(ignore my tinnitus from the Delta fan pointed at the GPU)

29c idle and 70-75c load, MUCH BETTER

But do you think it fixed it?
No.

playing unturned it crashed so hard that I had to re-download my GPU drivers to get the GPU to show up and task manager again!!!

And now I am here
under 20% load is fine and there's no crashing no block screen
any ideas?

(Specs, i7-4770, 32gb RAM, RX460-2GB)

Um so we determined the GPU to be dying.

tulip temple
# gilded cargo So CMOS resetting did not work?

I ran OCCT (CPU benchmark) and after 3 minutes there was no issue.

However running Furmark at 1080p crashed after I kid you not 2 seconds

I did successfully get it to run the benchmark at 720p

But the card was suffering.

#

I'm replacing it on the first and then I'll update you

Ok

Mines a psu

#

My GPU needs 700

I don't know if I'll upgrade it just cuz I'm currently building a computer and this computer was literally just to get me by while I built the main rig

So not quite sure about upgrades

Definitely storage
Maybe two 2 terabyte HDDS in raid 1? Just because I edit videos a bunch I don't want lost footage

#

But yes that video card handles pretty much everything I throw at it

gilded cargo
#

Nice

4th gen Intel does not officially support NVME connections so I might do two SATA SSDs instead
(of course, make sure to get them from different batches so that they don't die at the same time) and run them in raid 1, with my 3rd drive being google drive

so even if my house blows up i got mah data
