Black Screen When Playing Games.

[ItsTheYoshi]

Okay so like the title says I am black screening when playing Rainbow 6 Seige. When this happens my monitor says "no signal" and the game closes, while the computer continues to run in the background as I can still hear my friends in Skype when this happens. The only way to get my computer back up is to fully power it down, a restart will not work. Also HDMI and DVI have the same result. Also other games like Overwatch, Civ 5, Far Cry(original) work just fine.

 

Here is some background on my PCs situation. About a week ago, I put my GPU into the bottom PCI-E 4x slot to try and fix my BSOD issues and so far this has been the case, but a few days after that I was having major lag in R6. The lag ended up being an issue with going over the VRAM limit of my GPU so I lowered a few settings and now the game runs without any lag.

 

EDIT: Same issue in Unturned and while watching YouTube with Overwatch in the background.

 

More info on my PC:

It has one burnt RAM slot, caused by a hair that caught fire inside in the slot itself. This is why you never let other people try and "fix" your PC... Below are the full system specs.

CPU: i5 6600k @ 4.4Ghz w/ Hyper 212 Evo

GPU: Asus ROG STRIX RX 470 OC 4GB

RAM: 2x8GB 2400Mhz

MOBO: ASRock z170a-x1

Storage: 2x120GB SSDs and 1TB HDD
