Nothing much to discuss, my GPU (GameStation RTX3050 8GB) shuts down after intense use. I took a vacation and returned last month, and this issue keeps occurring. For instance, when launching games like GTA V, I step in a few feet and the screen goes dark with no signal. I updated the drivers expecting the problem but it persists. After removing the case panel and reloading the game, I heard a buzzing noise before it powers off. I’m concerned this could indicate a GPU failure, though I also thought it might be a PSU fault. Outside of that, other apps like emails, Teams, and Excel work fine. P.S. I haven’t overclocked or made any changes; the system was stable for over a year and a half. My specs are: CPU AMD Ryzen 7 1700, Motherboard Gigabyte GA-320A-HD2, RAM 2x8GB DDR4, Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050, case Corsair 4000d Airflow, storage Crucial MX500, 1TB Seagate Barracuda, PSU Corsair RM550x.

Hello, it seems unclear what the problem might be. You might be noticing coil whine, which is typical and usually harmless, though it can be bothersome. It doesn’t impact your graphics card performance.
