Did the rest of the PC keep running? Fans, lights, peripherals, everything but the display signal?

 

Sounds like you might have had a driver crash.

Run DDU to clean out your drivers, then install the most recent or next most recent version directly from Nvidia/AMD's website(whichever one you have), and see if it happens again.

 

Usually driver crashes aren't anything to worry about, just means your drivers are unstable or behaving weirdly with something. Do you have any GPU overclocks in place?

Yeah, just uninstall your drivers with DDU and reinstall the newest or next newest ones from the manufacturer site.

If your GPU was on the way out, it's more likely that your entire system would shut down, possibly throw a BSOD, a POST code, or fail to boot.
