My partner's display keeps going black after her PC has been on for a little while. Usually, playing a game (a proper game, not some Facebook browser thing) kicks it off. It happens seemingly at random. It does not appear to be related to the power profile or screensaver etc., as it will happen when she is actively using the computer, and I've changed it so the screensaver doesn't kick in for 30 minutes, and the power profile so that things don't switch off for like three hours.
It only started doing it recently, maybe for the past four days. I thought it might be driver dodginess, so I've done a clean install of Radeon's latest (she is using a Sapphire R9 270 Dual-X OC). I've also given her PC a spruce up internally, all the heatsinks, fans, surfaces etc. have been cleaned up and the PC isn't overheating, in fact it is running a bit cooler than I would expect.
So I'm at a loss. Any ideas what could be causing this please? It is causing her problems when she is raiding, and I'm getting my ear bent to fix it lol
