My monitor has been going back and forth between going to sleep and just going all blue(ish black). All of this started happening after playing in the Overwatch weekend beta. I thought my GPU was just toast, but even with a different graphics card it is still having these same problems. At this point it only happens when trying to play ANY game.
Current specs:
AMD Radeon HD 5500
AMD FX 8320 8-core processor
Toshiba 1 TB internal HD
AMD 970/sb950 atx motherboard
8g RAM
The graphics card I was using was a Radeon HD 7950
I've tried cleaning and reseting everything, but still havent found the problem. I wiped everything and reinstalled the OS, but still have problems. Everything is up to date.
UPDATE: It seems to be happening whether I'm in a game or not, I've just been testing games and there appeared to be some correlation. But it definitely just did it on the idle desktop screen as well.
I have multiple PCI-e slots, but neither of them are fixing the issue. What should my next step be?
