On New Years, I had built a PC. It's running Windows 10 and was running everything Ultra@60fps. Every once in a while during graphics intensive game, it would shut down. I assumed it was the CPU overheating because I didn't have proper fans in my system. Later (I'm on a budget, guys), I stuck a floor fan next to my PC. Anyways, my PC never really shut off during FPS games but seemed to like overheating during 3rd person games (The Witcher, Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition).
Now here's the fun part. Yesterday I turned on my PC and the display was at a low resolution, which was strange because I had always used the native monitor resolution. In Display Settings, the option to change the resolution was greyed out. Assuming it was an issue with my GPU's drivers, I uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers, and rebooted my PC. Now my monitor displays "No Signal" then goes into sleep when I power on my PC. Keyboard lights up and the CPU and GPU are both receiving power. Any clue towards what's happening?
