I'm experiencing a frustrating issue with my PC. After upgrading from a 2070 Super to an RX 9060 XT graphics card, everything worked well for a few weeks. However, now my monitor randomly turns off while the system remains powered on. Initially, I thought it might be a fluke, but this is happening consistently. It started with my monitor dying, then I noticed the GPU fans spinning much faster than normal. Restarting the PC sometimes brings the monitor back for a while, but it eventually shuts off again, and the PC has even restarted on its own a couple of times. I'm wondering if this could be an issue with the graphics card, the power supply, or something else entirely. Any thoughts on what might be causing this?

It sounds like you might be dealing with a driver issue or possibly a faulty power supply. When you upgraded, it could have overloaded your PSU if it's not providing enough power. I suggest running some diagnostic tests, like OCCT for your memory and power supply, to check for any instability. It's worth looking into your GPU drivers too, just to be safe!
I have a Cooler Master 650W Bronze PSU that's about 2 years old. Do you think that might be an issue?
