Question Blank screen while gaming.

[sirPaul]

So I bought a pc which basically have 2nd hand components last year. It got an Intel i7-7700 without a graphics card. It runs "old" fps games just fine with its integrated graphics (which were already downloaded on the pc as I bought it) . Until I bought a second hand Rx-570 to play "newer" games. Suddenly as I was playing these games that I downloaded the screen turns blank. I thought it was the graphics card overheating because it reaches around 80°C. So i replaced its thermal paste and pads. The temps significantly went down after that but the blank screen issues still remains. I also tried tweaking it in Msi afterburner but get tired of it because it doesn't work.

Did you checked that your PC still shows the same issue while you have removed your card?

I have had to deal with this type of issue when my GPU became problematic in the past and I needed to replace it in order for my computer to work.

To clarify: Did the newer games work for a while, until 'suddenly'…?

Do the old games still run ok?

Try dropping the resolution a notch in-game—eg if at 1920x1080, try 1600x900.
Try dropping the game's graphics settings a notch, eg from high to medium.

Yes the I tried playing these old games like the "2008? COD modern warfare" and it runs just fine. But when I play lets say Jump force or Monster Hunter World the "blank screen/ freezing with the game sound and music still is present" problem occurs.

I'm wondering could the psu be the culprit? Not the rx 570. Since my psu is an unknown 500w powerex psu.

Did you install the latest driver for the second hand GPU that you added?

Yes I already did. I even tried installing older drivers but it doesn't work either.
