Hi, I recently built the following pc:
i7-7700k
Gigabyte 1080 WindForce OC
Asus Prime Z270-A
G.Skill DDR4 2400 32GB
H100i v2
Supernova G2 650W 80 Plus Gold
BenQ 1440p 60hz monitor connected through the DVI that came with it.
M2 SSD & HDD
I'm having an issue in which the screen would turn off for around 2 seconds and then come back, no "driver stopped working" message or anything. Sound and the application/game keep working just fine while the screen is off, no sound loops or other glitches, like if nothing had happened, If it's I game I can pause for example.
I've monitored temps and such and they seem normal, cpu and gpu say around 70, gpu a bit hotter usually. Fans aren't at maximum speed when this happends. Everything currently at stock clocks.
At first it seemed it only happened while gaiming (Witcher 3 was when I first saw it) but it has also happened on less intensive games and even once while watching a movie. It did not happened when I left furmark for a while and neither while using other programs that do good use of the gpu, 3d modelling and such. But, overall, it does seem to be more frequent while gaiming but still really variable, apparently random.
The issue looks like the one in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNwFoJWgajQ
But not nearly as frequent, If i'm playing it may happen once every 20-30 minutes more or less. Sometimes two blacks with a few seconds between, sometimes I play without it happening for a good while.
All drivers updated.
Does it sound like a software/drivers problem or hardware? Gpu, Psu, monitor?
Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance and tell me if there is other information that could be useful for troubleshooting.
