Black Screen When Running FurMark and Almost All Games
Hey guys. So, my first post here. I got a custom build about 1.5 months ago. It has got a GTX 950. The mistake I made was not testing some games on the damn thing sooner. Approx. 20 days ago, I installed Dying Light and on starting it, it played out the intro, got to the checkpoint screen and blacked out. I could hear weird noises. Not the game sounds, but buzzing, whirring and beeping until the monitor switched off after a minute or two. The only solution was to hard reset using case button. I thought it might have something to do with settings and left it alone. Due to real life issues, I couldn't do anything till a day ago. Optimistic, I tried it again. Same as before. Tried reinstalling and everything on forums about DL. I tried other games. This time from Steam. No luck. Then, I even tried a very new game - The Lost Mythologies. The opening screen comes on and the the same thing. This was suspicious. I tried FurMark (at 720 preset). I got the same results. Black screen, no sounds this time and monitor's message: "Power saving mode", which is basically no output signal from the GPU. I can't even monitor GPU temps or anything while running these things. The only game running (out of Windows 7 provided games) is Osu!. I found this thread. Seems pretty similar to mine. Would you guys suggest anything from it? Any other solutions? I can provide any other info you might want. I don't have any overclocking applied.
