I am running:
CPU: AMD FX-6100 (not overclocked)
Mobo: Asus M5A78L-M/USB3
RAM: 16gb DDR3-1600
GPU: MSI R9 380 4GB
PSU: Corsair Builder 750W 80+ Bronze
Monitor: BenQ GL2250HM 60Hz 21.5" Monitor (1920x1080 - which I play on)
Monitor: Hannspree HE195ABB 18.5" Monitor (1366x768 - used for internet browsing)

I also have all the latest drivers.

The issue I am running into is that occasionally while playing GTA V, both of my monitors cut out, and it says HDMI not detected on both. The computer does not crash, as the game audio continues playing, however I have to restart the computer using the front button for the monitors to come back on. I am using HDMI on the 1080p monitor, and a HDMI to VGA connector on the 768p monitor. The reason I believe it is GPU based, as it is only since I've had a new GPU that this has occurred, however the problem is only occurring in GTA V, so I'm not sure. If there are any details I can give to help out, I do not mind. Thank you :)
