A few weeks ago, I built a new computer. For the first 2 weeks it ran fine but on the third it started to run into problems. Firstly I had this problem where I might be playing a game (GTA EFLC) and I may just be getting into a car or just walking around. Then the monitor goes black, as in it loses HDMI connection and goes into standby, while all I can hear is a buzzing in the headphones.
Second problem is that sometimes, the monitor doesn't pick up the HDMI from the graphics card. I've checked and its firmly in, I've tried a different cable etc. The only thing I can think of it being is the graphics card. I am hesitant to send it back or to get the computer checked at a local shop for fear it may be as simple as a driver install or something. Thanks
My PC
CPU-i5 3570k @ 4.4ghz
GPU-MSI Radeon HD 7950 Twin Frozr boost
PSU-Corsair CW750
Ram- 8gb Corsair Vengeance
Please ask if you need more specs.
