So I built my first PC about three months ago and my graphics card is a Radeon RX 480 4GB. It worked flawlessly for about a month. Then my PC started freezing and a gray screen would appear and sometimes it would come with a loud noise. I have read about issues with AMD cards and the "gray screen of death." My drivers are definitely up to date. I have tried reinstalling them numerous times. I have booted in safe mode and deleted the drivers and reinstalled and the issue still exists. I also monitor my GPU temperature and it usually does not go over 65 degrees Celsius. The issue is better than it was before. I can run my pc for basically everything except for when I run Overwatch. Videos are fine. I can leave it on for hours with no issues. Everything runs fine until I play Overwatch. I have not tried it with other games so I am assuming the issue will occur with them as well. There really isn't any pattern to when it crashes. Sometimes it takes a few minutes and sometimes I can play for an hour. I have read solutions to it but I still can't seem to fix it. I do not want to have to sell the card if I do not have to. I have read stuff about voltages for the CPU and GPU. Not really sure what to do though. I am not too knowledgeable when it comes to computers. Any ideas on what I can do? Any help would be much appreciated. I can try to provide any information if needed.

The only single game it does it on is overwatch??
You need to try more games mate.
Also furmark testing

And valley

Will test every aspect of the card & stress it to 100%.
If it runs though those fine then it is 100% not a GPU issue
What are the rest of your system specs in full ??
Including the PSU model.
