My screen will randomly go blank when using my computer.

Sometimes randomly when I am using my PC the screen will go black and all audio cuts out, the power button doesn't work and I am forced to switch off my PSU. Please help.

No this is the first computer I have built and I don't have a spare PSU, I have reinstalled the drivers and it seems to have stopped for now, but I will update if it persists.

ok if it does it again run DDU to remove all video drivers and reinstall them.

If that doesn't work than go get a cheap 550 watt and put it in and see if that works. if it doesn't return the 550W

Ok so I know its been a while but I bought a EVGA 650W G3 PSU 80+ Gold Certified and its still happening, I have tried DDU and no luck, it seems to happen the most when playing Fortnite and not any other games.
