Problem with Alienware 500hz 4070ti displaying black screen.
You're experiencing recurring display issues after updating your RTX 4070 Ti drivers. The monitor often goes black during gameplay or mid-game, resuming only after disconnecting and reconnecting it. GPU usage spikes noticeably during sessions, and you've tried various refresh rates, secure connections, and a fresh driver install. A red light on your motherboard suggests a CPU problem, though your CPU appears to be working normally. Your hardware setup includes an AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D, RTX 4070 Ti, MSI MAG X670E motherboard, 64GB DDR5 RAM, two 1TB/2TB NVMe SSDs, and a 1000W Asus TUF Gaming monitor.
Everything seemed okay before you updated the driver. I noticed several problems with the existing one. If the issues are driver-related, they might revert to your previous versions. Did you realize you just installed the new drivers? Were you sure the CPU was mounted properly if the indicator lights came on?
