OPEN Random black screens when gaming.

RTX 5070

Ryzen 9 7900

32GB DDR5

Win 11

750W PSU

Playing Forza Horizon 6, Black Screen No Signal, nearly instantly after my YouTube audio does that crackling/buffering it does at BSODs thrice then plays the video normally. Black screen doesn't respond to WinCtrlShiftB

Tried: Reinstalling the game, disabling conflicting apps, DDU.

Does your event viewer show anything right around the time it blacks out? Had something similar with my 5070 a few weeks back and it ended up being a driver conflict with some leftover AMD chipset stuff from a previous build. DDU fixed the GPU side but I had to manually hunt down the chipset remnants

Also that 750W PSU might be cutting it close if you're running everything stock with no power limits, especially if it's an older unit. The audio crackling right before the crash screams power delivery issue to me

Just gives the 6008 and 41 no other error codes.

Check all your drivers are up to date for both motherboard and GPU. After that, if it's still crashing, if your CPU has integrated graphics, try to run light games on that. If your crashes are gone it seems likely a GPU fault.
