Hello! I bought an MSI MECH 6700XT over the weekend as an upgrade over my RTX 2060. I popped it into my system without a hitch after using DDU, installed the drivers, and just played some games I usually played (after a restart of course). I played Cyberpunk 2077 for a bit and it crashed a few times, though I just chalked it up to the game or something. I then ran the UserBenchmark test and then my PC just crashed out of nowhere. My mobo's CPU light came on, which was weird, so after swapping some RAM around it eventually went away. However, whenever I tried to boot up the system with the 6700XT, I would get a black screen and a restart before booting into Windows.
I have uninstalled drivers with DDU three times and reinstalled the WHQL drivers, updated the chipset drivers, and flashed the BIOS. I also enabled XMP in the BIOS and ensured that PCIe Gen was 3. The system works fine if I use the integrated graphics of my 5700G, or my previous card. I do not have a different CPU to use in the system. I haven't updated Windows because that just doesn't seem like a likely issue. My current theories are either that I need new cables, the card is bad, or the drivers are bad.
