Black screen

[SlaughterSmurf]

So while gaming, I haven't seen it while running stress tests like Heaven +Prime 95 at the same time. But in Fallout 4, Overwatch, and Witcher 3, and maybe others these are just the games I've noticed, my screen goes black, it says "No signal found" on both of my monitors. When I unplug and replug the display connectors (Displayport and an HDMI) the display returns. Turning the monitors off and on again do not solve the issue, only re-seating the Displayport and HDMI do. When it returns the game has crashed. I checked event viewer, and there are no events when this occurs. I replaced the graphics card, so it's not that. I replaced the power supply, so it's not that. My temps on my CPU remain under 80 degrees while gaming, so it's not that. The specs are as follows:

 

CPU: i5 3570k @ 4.2ghz stock voltage

GPU: EVGA GTX 1080 SC (was EVGA 780ti SC)

Power Supply: EVGA GQ 650W (Was Corsair CX Builder Series 750W)

RAM: 16GB Kingston Hyperx Black 1600 mhz stock speeds (4 dims of 4GB)

Storage: 3TB WD Caviar Green, 500GB Samsung 850 Pro, 120GB Kingston SSD Now, 120GB Samsung 840 Evo boot drive

Motherboard: MSI Z77 G43

did you use ddu or similar to completely clean out graphics drivers before reinstalling them?
try a synthetic benchmark like catzilla, 3dmark or unigine and check the log files after a crash (try running until it crashes)

 

some games might have logfiles too you could check.. google game name plus "log file" for example..
