Sorry, this might not be the right spot for your question. It’s your first time here. I don’t remember exactly when it started, maybe just a few weeks ago or even less. When I play games, my monitor sometimes shuts off completely, but my PC stays on. If I try to turn it back on, it says there’s no signal and turns itself off again. I have to restart it for it to work. Recently, I checked the temperature with a benchmark—my monitor would go dark in 2 to 4 minutes, but my temperatures stayed below 67. I’ve tried updating drivers, changing power settings, and uninstalled some software, but nothing helps. I’m using Windows 11, an AMD Ryzen 7 5800X, 64 GB RAM.

Curiously, what kind of power source are you using? It seems like a GPU problem might be involved, possibly due to excessive power draw, or it could relate to a driver issue. Since the temperatures are low, a thermal concern is unlikely.
