My monitor turns black when I'm trying to game and I dont know why.

A month ago I bought a gtx 750 ti. It worked fine. Then just recently, I upgraded my monitor to a BenQ GL2460HM. The monitor came with a d-sub cable. However, the gpu has a cable connector for dvi-i would this have an affect on either one? I switched to an HDMI cable but my monitor still blacks out. My computer is of course still running. Now, here's the weird part: right before my screen blacks out a static/buzzing noise comes through my audio; my headphones or speakers, depends on what I'm using. Is my gpu/mobo dying? Or is my PSU not able to handle the endless hours of gaming?

My specs:

AMD A10-5800K
ASRock FM2A75 Pro4 mobo
EVGA NVidia GTX 750 TI
BenQ GL2460HM
Corsair CX500

Please help.

From my reading I have seen some issues with video cards. But it seems weird that this is just happening once you got the new monitor. I would make sure that the cables hdmi etc are good test them on another source. If you have another computer try your video card in it and see what it does. If not I would advise to contact corsair and RMA the PSU.

I have reinstalled my drivers & tested 3 differrent cables that are all new.. The same issue applies: It seems when I run my games: WoW or overwatch, my screen turns black/grey or even red. Again, the buzzing noise is apparent following the crash. Yhis is the first time it's ever happened.

Sadly, I'm not the original purchaser of this PC except for the GPU/monitor. I have asked for a return on my gpu since it has not been a month since I've startrd using it. I'm very disappointed. Until then, I'll try other possibilities to see if I can fix it.
