      @StenXa Honestly, no image from a GPU can be caused by a lot of different things. It can be insufficient power, it can be "dirty" power, it can be a bad connection, it can be overheating (either heat sink not making sufficient contact of the fan being blocked by dust or broken), it can be driver issue, it can be card's BIOS issue, it can be your motherboard (either PCI-E slot, or something else), it can even be your CPU not handling PCI-E lanes correctly, and that's not to mention simply a dying GPU.
      To troubleshoot you first need to see when a blackout happens - is it in high intensity applications (like gaming, rendering, sometimes even high quality video in a browser with turned on hardware acceleration), or is it random, even in low-intensity applications, like when sitting on desktop, or browsing non-intensive websites etc. If it's the first one - monitor temperatures (MSI Afterburner has an OSD with a temperature readout), see if the card gets hot (the definition of "too hot" is different for different GPUs) or if the crash happens at some specific temperature, even if it isn't that high. In that case dust the fan, see if it works and probably change the thermal paste. If it's random then check if the card is seated properly in a PCI-E slot (best is to just take it out and plug it back in all the way), if your gpu requires additional power (6 pin, 8 pin, 6+8 pin or 8+8 pin usually), then check if it's plugged in properly. Also - make sure your total system power consumption is AT LEAST around 50-80% of your PSU max rated wattage (so for a system that requires max 400W, you'd need AT LEAST 480W), there are PSU calculators online (outervision is my favourite), so check. Also - check if your PSU is a good one, that usually means it has at least 80+ Bronze certification (there's more to it, but this comment is long enough already).
      If neither of those works - reinstall your GPU drivers. You can also start with this step, if you want.
      Those are the basic - troubleshooting and quick fix tips, work most of the time, if not, then it's something more complex, requiring a "bespoke solution", to say it all fancy and shit.

My grand father was a big big man.. my dad once asked him "how did your arms get so large?" and he'd reply " well son when they hand you a big hammer and tell you to turn big rocks into little rocks, you get big arms" so thanks for the memories.

      I was just gonna post about how old long term cons talk about their time in prison like they miss it when he says at 23:04 about smelling that smoke and how it takes him back, lol. Its a very strange phenomenon, but I guess that's most of their life and its pretty much all they know. Its sad really, I've spent a few years inside over the years but don't look at a single minute of any of it with fond memories like that. But then my time was not even 1/10 of my lifetime tho, in fact I think it would barely be 1/5. I'm 47 and done about 3 1/2 years behind the wall. So I'm fortunate to have had the majority of my life living in a mostly free world.
      I mean like I remember doing some of the 'hacks' (if you call them that I guess, lol) that you had to do to get by and it was kinda interesting seeing and doing some of the mad lengths that you had to go to just for simple things like boiling water and all sorts of weirdly made contraptions that got made just to do what you needed to do to get by and shit.
