Hey.

Specs:
i5 4600k
Gigabyte GTX1070
16gb RAM
Asus Z170 Pro Graming Motherboard

GPU crashed to blue screen midgame. This happened right after the screen got green pixels all over. Then it restarted, turned on and black screen with not even motherboard bootup sequence displaying. However, I could hear windows booting up. I checked cables from GPU to the screen, no help. I removed the power cable, and touched the GPU. It was cool to the touch. Then I pulled it out, put it back in, still no display. The card blinked "FAN STOP" for a moment, but that light turned off and may be standard, otherwise the LED's on the side were showing lights indicating it was getting power.

I then tried an old GPU that did work two months ago. Same issue. I moved first the 1070 to second GPU slot, didn't work, same issue.
Then the old one to second slot and still the issue remains.

Now I'm super terrified my motherboard is dead. At best my GPU. Any ideas?

Currently writing this from my computer with the card pulled out and screen attached to the motherboard display.

This PC is a month and a half old and has lasted through several hours of intense gaming without breaks, never running at super high temps, and this time crashed after only and hour or two.
