When screen goes blank, is it during normal usage and/or idle? or during gaming?

My thoughts are either your PSU cant handle your Video card or the card itself is bad? you said you tested with another video card and it was working fine correct?

My PC did the same... Bought a new GPU and screen (to be certain) and it works now.

Can you actually use your PC at all? If so, check thr power settings. It might be set for eco mode so your brightness is proper low.
