im having yet another issue with my pc.when im playing some certain games.when i play games like distance for example.my pc will just go blank but sound still plays and i can even put my pc to sleep.but the screen will remian blank and the only way to turn it off is by restarting the pc with the restart button.the other day i was wactching a recorded twitch video and my pc screen glitched with random colours and just went blank.sound still played but pc was blank and hard reset was my only solution.and sometimes when i game my pc screen will randomly go blank for a split second like a flash and come back.everytime i have those issues theres nothing in the event viewer that shows any link to it for some reason.but today this crash happned to me today and theres some things in the event viewerfor today which dosent usally say when my pc goes blank.any ways theres things i tried.ive wiped my ssd completly areinstalled windows,donwgraded the latest nvidia drivers all the way down to nvidia 362.00,stresstested my gtx 970 strix for 7 hours with a good tempreture of 70 degress while fans at 670rpm,reinstalled all my mb drivers,have the latest bios.help is apreciated.btw just to note that this isnt something common as i dont know how to trigger it.it happnes randomly unexpectedly and rarley.there isnt a certain way i can trigger it.

also if i were to put my pc to sleep and then turn it on while the screen gone blankmy h100iv2 will spin at a diffrent fan configuration and my gpu fans will also spin at a diffrent configeration.also my cpu will go into load temps,not dangerous temps but into load temps as if its working.i did a prime 95 test on my cpu and found no crashes or bad temps.
