PC blackout when gaming halfway

[ragegoh]

I faced this problem only when playing game. Im unable on or off numlock but the music is still playing in the blackground.

I have to force shutdown the pc to get the screen back.

I tried removing a stick of ram and the problem seems to be gone. After that i shut down the pc and put that stick back, and im able to game again.

What could be the issue? Could it be driver issue? I got video driver crashed error before i update the driver.

I think your graphics card has died.

You can borrow a graphics card to test first before buying a replacement.

Most likely gpu issues.

If you can hear sound but black screen. High chance is either overheat or your vrms overheat.
