During the installation of the drivers from the official nvidia site the screen goes blank but I can still hear the sounds. After a reboot the PC is stuck in a loop, right after the login screen it freezes and restarts.

I removed the drivers with DDU and updated windows where one of the updates is geforce drivers ( or something like that) when the update finishes, PC freezes and the same thing happens. Removed the card, PC works fine with internal gpu.
 
Solution
I'd use DDU to remove any existing drivers (in safe mode), disable window's ability to install drivers automatically and try the latest hotfix drivers from the Nvidia site.
