Display goes black and cooling increases during high demand
Display goes black and cooling increases during high demand
My computer has run into the problem were when I run a heavy games like call of duty or god of war, the screen will instantly go to black and the fans on my gpu will start spinning at high rmps, but the computer itself is still on (gpu rgb and motherboard light is on) and I turn it back on by pressing the restart button on the case. Games like overwatch run fine and don’t cause the issue to happen. The problem also happens when I’m not even playing games, it will just randomly happen while I’m doing something. I’ve tried multiple solutions online, which non have worked so I’m going here for help. Somebody told me to repair windows in the cmd and it worked for like 4 hours but then the problem came back. I’ve also heard that other people have been having this problem recently and that it’s a new issue that has been coming up for people. The pc is virtually unusable so It would be great if someone could help me.

It's due to your limited CPU power causing delays. How do your processor temps change when under stress? Is the system running smoothly? Have you updated the BIOS? You can verify disk health with tools like Hard Disk Sentinel or Crystal Disk Info.
These questions suggest you're looking for clarification on several points. You're wondering if an upgrade is necessary to avoid the issue recurring, whether your CPU temperatures are normal despite not overheating, if you should clean dust or malware, whether a disk health check is needed, and if your BIOS driver is up to date.
To reduce the bottleneck, consider upgrading your components. Currently, your 2080 behaves like a 2060 to a 2070 depending on how the game utilizes the CPU. 2. Tools like HWMonitor, OpenHardwareMonitor, and HWInfo64 Stress Test (OCCT, prime95, FurMark, MSI Kombustor) are available. 3. I meant dust and similar issues. 4. You can't modify the BIOS via Device Manager; drivers might help, but BIOS updates aren't possible there. Follow the manufacturer's instructions—links to the BIOS page are provided. You can verify your BIOS version using tools such as CPU-Z, Aida64, or Speccy. 5. Please proceed accordingly.
I can verify that my CPU temperatures stayed low since I used the open hardware monitor and both disks are functioning properly. However, I recently encountered an issue updating my BIOS. When I restart to enter BIOS setup, the main monitor loses signal while the secondary remains active, resulting in a black screen that persists for 10–15 minutes before returning. When I click DELETE to access BIOS setup, it opens the log window but doesn’t proceed. I’ve also tried following the UEFI firmware path, but it doesn’t resolve the problem either.
I'm checking the exact EVGA 2080 model you have. https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/?man...l=RTX+2080
If it doesn't boot properly or isn't detecting the main display, you might need a fresh BIOS. It could be using DisplayPort, so try connecting it to a single monitor that maintains the signal.
I don’t know the precise EVGA 2080 model, but I can attempt to figure it out. 3) My primary monitor connects via a display port cable, while the secondary uses HDMI. Should I rearrange connections to improve compatibility?
