Hi guys,

I've had this problem for about two weeks now and it's seriously getting on my nerves. Started randomly, didn't update or touch anything prior to the problem

Whilst playing CS:GO, sometimes in 5 minutes, or in 20 minutes my pc will -

- Remain on but monitor goes black
- Lose sound
- Keyboard/ mouse lights are still on
- Have to reboot for it to work
- Fans are still running fine

I don't know much about computers and would prefer to refrain from buying anything new.

Specs -

CPU - AMD FX4100 Bulldozer @ 3.9ghz
Graphics Card - R9 270x
RAM - 8GB Corsair Dominator
OS - Windows 10
Mobo - Gigabyte 990FXA-D3
PSU - Asrock 700W ASC-700C

Any suggestions or help would be much appreciated, thanks!
