I installed a new GPU (Gigabyte RX 480), and tested it on stressful games that i hadn't been able to run before (space engineers). I immediately ran into a problem, a gray screen crash, the screen goes gray and my second monitor goes the main color on the monitor, a Forece shutdown being the only solution.
Unsure of the reason i monitored and tested before discovering that i could temporarily fix the issue by lowering the clock rate on the GPU (through the gigabyte "Xtreme gaming engine") if i do this the computer becomes more stable and becomes more stable to lower i set it (less crashes).
The main question i have is does this sound like a power issue, because i suspect that's what it is?
Specs:
Windows 10
8GB DDR3 RAM
1TB HHD
Intel i5-4460 CPU
ASUS H81M-plus
CM thunder 500W PSU
Gigabyte G1 Gaming RX 480 8GB
Drivers from the Gigabyte site.
