Specs:
AMD FX 4300 Vishera
G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB
ASUS HD7770-DC-1GD5-V2
ASUS M5A78L-M LX PLUS Motherboard
CORSAIR CXM series CX430M 430W
So I was playing a game when the screen went black and I heard a weird glitch noise. After waiting maybe 30 seconds, I held down the power button to turn it off. Since then I havent seen the display but I do still hear the Windows startup sound when I turn it on. Of course this could only mean it is the GPU. The thing is I can still see the LED on my GPU lit, so I am not sure why it is not displaying. Any suggestions? I have tried switching the HDMI cable, but that didn't work.
On a sidenote, I have had my computer on for a while now. I think it's been about 5 days since I have turned it off. Do you think it just needs some downtime? Also I built it maybe a month ago.
Thank you, in advance.
