Hey,

I've been looking around for a few hours and couldn't find much of use. I'm not really sure what the issue is - But I'd assume it's graphics or CPU related perhaps (no idea).

The black screen (sometimes one monitor goes blue) and buzzing happens randomly, sometimes hours apart, and was once a couple of minutes apart just now. I fix it by holding down the power button, then simply turning it back on again until it does it again.

Has anyone had a similar issue? My specs are:

CPU - Intel i7-4770k (not overclocked)
GPU - Asus GeForce GTX 770 2GB (not overclocked)
RAM - 16GB LP Corsair Vengeance
MB - Asus Z87-A
SSD (OS/games) - 256GB Samsung 840 Pro Series, 160gb free
HDD (Documents, etc) - 1TB Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM
PSU - Corsair 760W, ATX12V/EPS12V
OS - Microsoft Windows 8.1

Temperatures ~10-20 mins after a crash: http://puu.sh/5GBqg/0924f6b425.png

Other info:

    Built the computer a week ago
    Got latest graphics card drivers (R331)


If you need to know anything else, let me know.

Thanks!

Happens multiple times daily, really need help. Tried re-installing graphics card, it should be installed 100% correct.

did you try to strip down system to minimum parts using the onboard video chipset from the cpu and see if you still have the issue then add one part at the time .

It takes a while to reproduce - But I think it's the graphics card overheating. I got 4 new noctua fans, but it still crashed just now and my graphics card is over 57C. Is there a reason they're not cooling the graphics card much? There's like no difference to last time. I have 2 on the side taking in air, and 2 on top taking out air, with the stock 2 on front and 1 on back intaking and outaking respectively. :(

temp are in idle or on load and did you check the refresh rate in the nvidia panel if it is 60 hz if it is to high to cause issue on monitor .

The audio doesn't always buzz, but the screens randomly go white/grey/black still. Is it worth trying to re-install the OS or something?

"The driver \Driver\WUDFRd failed to load for the device ACPI\PNP0A0A\2&daba3ff&2." also appears in admin logs at the time of the crash, I don't know if it has anything to do with it.

I did a fresh install of Windows 8, and now both my monitors randomly "disconnected" at the same time, as if they were checking for a connection, but couldn't find one. They're both connected to the graphics card, one via HDMI and one via HDMI<->DVI.

then check if the hdmi driver are on also see if your card could support both monitor this way and try her on another system with the same settings ,if nothing work could be gpu card issue not able to handle both monitor in hdmi mode .
