When ever i play games my screen would go black but I can still hear the game and friend says i'm still mobile in the game as well. Would it be that my monitor is breaking or would it be my GPU. Don't want to replace one finding out its actually not the part that broken.

What pc parts are you using monitor/gpu etc?

I have a samsung sync master its 1year and 8 months old. My gpu is GTX 780 with all the latest driver not planning to upgrade until later unless that the culprit then I might need to upgrade as I can't have my screen going black and having to reset my computer and try to rejoin the game everytime.
