So recently my computer has been messing up randomly, Graphic driver would crash even though i updated it to the newest one, My computer screen just went black and i heard the sound slowly glitch out till i was forced to turn it off manually, And i was getting BSOD but i fixxed that issue by updating the GPU. Anyone have any ideas on what it could possible be? Or any programs i can use to scan sytem files/errors and fix them?

Sounds like your card isn't getting enough power. Do you have a Unplugged card that only requires power from the MoBo?

If you need help on used parts, contact me. I'm an used enthusiast.

So the GPU i have is  one i've been using for a year or so, IT broke down so i got it replaced, while it was out i used my sisters card and it worked fine, didnt need 2 8 pins like this one, anyway i can make the GPU use more power or something? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/TNxDBm is my build, I have a sapphire nitro r9 390 GPU

Well, you can try to over volt the card, if you want to try. I can't give any promises of it actually taking effect in any way. it will most likely just increase the temps
