Need assistance with a frozen PC during gameplay. The screen goes black while playing.
Hello, I’m experiencing an issue while gaming for extended periods. After about 30 to 60 minutes, my PC freezes and the screen goes black as the GPU fans stop working. This only occurs with recent games, which is quite bothersome. My system runs fairly well—around 60 FPS on 4K/2K settings—but I still face problems with titles like Ubuntu, Hogwarts Legacy, Cyberpunk 2077, and others. After a freeze, the only solution is to shut down the PC, as turning it back on leaves the display black without any response. The main concern is that once the system powers off, the capacitors can’t clear properly, leaving the hardware in a dead state. Specs: motherboard Gigabyte A520M DS3H, RX 6700 XT graphics, OCX CPU, Intel i9 5900X, PSU Thermaltake Smart BX1 RGB, 32GB DDR4 3200MHz RAM, Windows 11 Pro, BIOS F17A. GPU driver is AMD Software Adrenalin Edition 23.3.2.
