Black Screen and drastic increase in fan speed randomly during game
Hi everyone, I recently have had issues with a consistent black screen during a gaming session that is always accompanied by a drastic increase in my fan speeds. My monitor will instantly say, "No Signal", and I can only turn off computer manually. I have the following specs:
Windows 10 20H2 (OS Build 19042.804)
CPU: Intel Core i7 9700k
GPU: NVIDEA GEFORCE GTX 1660
MBD: ASUS Z390-P
RAM: XGP DDR4 16GB Dual
I have had all the components since August 2019. I have also tried the following things to correct the issue:
- Properly confirmed Intel chipset drivers were up-to-date and not corrupted
- Performed a complete clean of my GPU drivers and installed latest drivers from NVIDEA using the Display Driver Uninstaller from Guru3D
The crash mainly occurs when I am in Overwatch, but it also has happened while sitting in the menu and in other games.
I am unsure how to properly address this issue outside of what I have already done. Has anyone had a similar issue or knows of further steps I can take to identify the issue or stop the crashing? Thanks in advance guys!
