Hello, has anyone faced this situation before? I recently purchased a used ASUS TUF Gaming RTX 3070 OC to upgrade from my Nvidia T600. The warranty remains valid until 2024. The issue arises when I attempt to play in high settings on games like Valheim, Plague Tale Innocence (Ultra mode, achieving 10x-125 fps at 83°C, 99% GPU performance). When switching to RTX and enabling DLSS in Control, the screen goes black even though the PC remains operational and uses minimal power. I also tried Ultra mode for Dishonored 2, but it worked perfectly. After a black screen, I can resume normal activities like browsing or office work. I've reinstalled the drivers (GeForce 8 Dec), re-seated the GPU, but it didn't resolve the problem. The card's BIOS version is 94.04.3A.40.2B. Additionally, I'm curious if fluctuations in household voltage or power supply could impact performance during intense gaming sessions. I also have a stabilizer, but I haven't used it yet to investigate further. My setup includes: CPU - Ryzen 5 3600, Motherboard - MSI B550 A PRO, CPU cooler - ID Cooling SE224XT, 16GB RAM, Adata XPG storage (512GB NVME), 1TB SSD, PSU - Corsair RM650 (2021 model).
