Game terminated with a black screen and flickering animation, unresolved.
I didn't know where to put this but on Thursday I was gaming with my brother while I was on discord and everything crashed.
Black screen had pixelated patterns and I was unable to get her started up again. My PC would turn on but it was as if nothing was showing on my screen. Will post a pic.

So what I did to troubleshoot is disconnected my PC and opened up the case. Checked all the fans, I reseated the GPU and RAM and started it up and it was fine, until I went to load up Satisfactory (video game)
The last time it happened it showed up as I was booting my PC. And once my PC was booted it cleared itself. and strangely I am able to browse the internet as of right now. If someone may point me in the right direction that would be great.
Asus Z370 killer mobo
Intel i5 8600k
Geforce 1080 GPU
16k ram
Edit1: I was checking for heat issues, and prior to the problems everything was around 30-40c
Edit2 Everything was running fine on my PC for a while and loaded something up and there was a yellow exclamation mark noting an issue in device manager, drivers were updated.
Edit 3 Switching PCI slots made no changes.
Edit4 So after a few hours I am pretty positive this is a GPU issue. It makes sense because I think this card has been slowly dying. (zotac 1080) I think the silver lining is, I can prob find a pretty solid GPU and not break the bank. Im setting this to resolved for now, I disabled my video card and all the problems have ceased so far (knock on wood)
Check the integrated graphics on your CPU and observe any changes during daily operation. What model and make of your power supply unit are you using, and how long have you had it?
Thanks for your reply. I might consider running a GPU test. My PSU is an EVGA SuperNOVA 750 Gold, which has been in use for about five years now. I’m not sure why NewEgg links it to the 850W model, perhaps the 750 is no longer available.
