Anyways from the gist of the title you should have been able to understand that I was playing H1Z1 the screen froze however I still heard the sound, my monitor's then proceeded to turn off and display DVI no signal & HDMI no signal. No matter how much I tried to fix it (replugging in, cleaning with air can) it didn't come back until I restarted my computer. Anything you can think of in particular which would cause this error?

What are your GPU temps?
Are you overclocking the GPU?
What power supply do you run?

4. Posted my build in the edit.

Get either MSI Afterburner or HWMonitor:

(Jun 7, 2016 11:10 AM)Gt403cyl Wrote:  Temps (GPU) are ok but it would seem you are pushing that card pretty hard.
It's possible that prolonged play could cause it to overheat.
It the problem persists it may be time for a new GPU.

I would wait for the new RX480 at the end of the month the 8GB will be about $230 and the 4GB will be about $200, I would really suggest the 8GB for the little extra money.

Would I need a new PSU for this new card? Why the 8GB? I don't really plan to be running anything 4k so would I really need the extra?
