Could RAM cause a blackscreen?

[Jack Dvorak]

Okay so my ram is messed up, it is rated to be at 3000mhz but when i got to 2933 which is the closest my mobo supports it poops out an error msg so 2666 is the highest it will go. Ever since I did that, issues have been occuring. In the middle of fortnite my screen would just go black, both monitors that is and it would close fortnite. I don't know what is causing it. I have 18.3.3 drivers on my MSI RX580 8gb... help lol

Could be a driver crash, could be unstable RAM overclock.

I'd like to figure it's ram but we will find out... I undid the change to 2666mhz and put it back to auto which runs it at 2133 for some reason. And I am reinstalling 18.3.3. Hopefully amd can update their drivers soon, and fortnite can fix their game soon. But eh fortnite is declining for me so who cares.

Fortnite is declining for everyone except the players that have little to no skill.

 

You could also try an older driver too.

I'll try that later. I am going to give this a shot really quick.
