While using my 980 i I occasionally encounter black screen problems while playing games (though not consistently). I have refreshed the graphics drivers, updated to the latest version, and read about underclocking as a potential solution. I also have MSI Afterburner installed to experiment with this, but I'm unsure about the correct settings for underclocking. If anyone has any suggestions, it would be really useful. On a side note, there seems to be no visible damage to the card at all.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs. Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.
ive refreshed the graphics drivers *updated to latest driver*
You mean you've used DDU to remove all GPU drivers(Intel, AMD and Nvidia) in Safe Mode to manually install the latest driver sourced off of Nvidia's support site in an elevated command, i.e, Right click installer>Run as Administrator?
