Hello,

 

I built my computer in February of this year. Everything had been working fine for a good long while until just recently I started experiencing a problem where the screen goes black for just a couple of seconds. It was pretty annoying but I could deal with it. Then it started to happen more frequently which made me wonder what was going on. I began to notice that for Minecraft it would occur a lot when I had my shaders on and then at other random times during my playing sessions. In Overwatch it was just unpredictable however. Sometimes it would be just fine. However there are days, specifically today, where my screen flickered black and I had to restart my computer. Another time during the same session my computer just crashed all together (this was after I turned my graphics down a little). I suspect that it has something to do with the graphics card but I'm not too sure. Keep in mind I'm no computer genius so I'm not sure if the problem is easily fixable but I was really hoping that I could get some answers and help here. I will leave a list of my PC specs below. Let me know if there is anything else that you need to see. 

 

PC Specs:

AMD Ryzen 5 2600

Gigabyte Arorus B450 Pro WiFi

16GB Corsair DDR4 3000 (2 sticks of 8)

ASRock Radeon RX 580

EVGA 650 G3 Power Supply

500GB Western Digital SSD

NZXT H500i

 

The picture is the message I got when my computer crashed. I also have a video of it happening. This is when I play Minecraft with shaders, although it can happen without shaders as well. (Sorry for poor video quality)
