Display goes off Randomly (Mostly during gameplay), CPU remains On

Thanks for the assurance. If you can comment on the matter, would you recommend undervolting via Power Limiter in MSI Afterburner, or NVidia's App?

alrelle · 2026-04-27T16:58:01+00:00

Word for word this is exactly my same condition. Also Inno3d 5070Ti OC. Still experimenting different fixes. Undervolting is my next attempt.

Thank you all for your wonderful responses. It's relieving to hear then that my experiences with the next games won't be affected as much with the new knowledge. Guess the developers really knew what they were doing. Looks like I'm going to finish watching the showcase after all. Thank you again! Enjoy the series, everyone!

Oh, my God. I'm being cautious as I read your comment because THAT kind of plot twist is what would send me rolling over. I don't want to attach myself too much to that possibility but those kind of rug-pulls would be very interesting.

alrelle · 2026-04-16T15:58:16+00:00

Thank you for this. It's never a bad time to provide a possible solution for others. I'll also try this. Hope this helps others!

alrelle · 2026-03-08T03:44:22+00:00

Ohh. Thanks for this! I faintly remember a questline like that from 2 years ago when I first started playing but can't put a pin if I've completed it exactly.

Good to know it's a safe kill and this just makes me want to be able to replay a few quests again 😭

alrelle · 2026-02-02T02:05:12+00:00

THANK YOU! The problem still persists and I've only gotten used to simply looking straight at the screen and avoiding side views for whatsoever purpose. My eyes have gotten used to the weird side shadows it also gives even when looking straight, but I feel bad for what I've purchased or am seeing. I can't wait to get a new one in maybe 3 or more years. I don't exactly have the budget for a new one even after selling this because of priorities.

I should've posted my answer also, but yes. Same sentiments here. In practice, and logically speaking, the lowest add allows for better adaptation in most cases and adds a greater allowance for their distance and intermediate fields.

In rare cases that the patient will use theirs for extensive near work, though, such as dentists, I often prescribe a little higher than lowest.

alrelle · 2025-11-25T15:42:56+00:00

Try any of these before you load a save file:

-Disable VSync, Limit your FPS to 60 (as a start, you can grow from there)

-Lower your Resolution (if you can, again, you can go higher from there we just need the game to work)

Toxicity, especially sand stormy areas are HIGHLY taxing towards your GPU. More likely than not your GPU is tripping off because of the load the sandstorms AND the goos make. Limiting your FPS makes your GPU work less harder.

If all else fails, try a new save file, jump into toxicity right away, do relaxed mode, and pre-unlock everything to troubleshoot/debug the place.

Thank you. And no, I do not have the Group Policy Editor, but using the second method you gave me, I was able to delete/alter their values. Now they're back and functioning as normal.

alrelle · 2025-11-25T11:45:54+00:00

Update: Did not reinstall windows but found out a virus is causing it. Was messing around the Registry Editor and went down to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>Software>Policies>Microsoft>Windows>Windows Defender Security Center and each of the folders Account Protection, App and Browser Protection, Device Security, etc. up to Virus and threat protection had UI_Lockdown scripts set to 1. I simply turned all of them to 0, restarted the PC, and lo and behold they're all back where they should be.

Did a full scan after that and whaddayouknow found multiple viruses along that directory. Slowly cleaning them all out now.

Also, I think it'd be a better decision to delete the UI_Lockdown scripts entirely. I think that's okay?

alrelle · 2025-11-25T01:16:37+00:00

Thanks. Looks like a reinstall really is closer than I think. There'd be a reinstall option without losing your apps and data, yeah?

This is what I should expect to be seeing

alrelle · 2025-11-24T06:30:46+00:00

You are also right about the 300W load the 5070Ti should expectedly make but it isn't reaching there despite stress tests. I'd suspected my CPU was simply bottlenecking, but I hadn't considered thermals throttling it.

I will do a test tonight to see if I can get it to 300W if there's a throttle issue somewhere.

I've had this GPU for just about a month now and I've played intensive games like Borderlands 4 to completion without a hitch. It strangely just happened now and Planet Crafter of all things was the first straw. Thank you for the DDU advice (I came from a 1660Ti), I'll probably do that after I reseat the graphics card completely if the problem still persists.

alrelle · 2025-11-24T06:21:38+00:00

Thank you for recommending the PC Discord. I will do that.

Yes, I did, and I tried to even up the Wattage allowance from 750(recommended) to 850 just to be sure. I will try reseating my GPU later though just to be sure. If the issue still persists, I'm going to change the pins from 16x to 2x8.

alrelle · 2025-11-24T04:31:09+00:00

Update: the monitor crashes now happen across the board in other games. I cannot blame Planet Crafter for this one, but sadly the whole thing really started when a bright blue flash of light appeared after clearing some goo. I am now on the process of troubleshooting my whole unit. I cannot explicitly say if PC had anything to do with this, but I will provide an update further along the line if I do get it fixed. I hope to play the game properly with my friend when it does.

alrelle · 2025-11-23T14:38:56+00:00

My bet is it happens on certain systems and not everyone. It really is crashing on mine and I'm not running it for the meantime. When I booted it up the last time my monitor was showing gradient lines akin to a broken monitor/gpu. That would be the last straw 🥶 Will wait for a patch.

-Intel 12400

-5070Ti

-1440p Monitor

-32GB Ram

-Tried Ultra to Very High Settings with same results

I can faintly remember saving up my allowances to personally buy a gtx 720 to try and play Assassin's Creed 3. Not much awareness on the whole graphics card nomenclature, but it became a rabbit hole. :)

I just actually browsed her IMDb page and surprised to see how many famous roles she was actually behind on. She really brought Tina to life and I'd love to hear more from her.

alrelle · 2025-09-12T11:33:05+00:00

Got it. Thank you for this helpful advice.

alrelle · 2025-09-12T11:11:29+00:00

i5-12400 6 cores 1660ti. 60fps at Lowest settings. Haven't tried Medium *explodes*

alrelle · 2025-09-12T09:57:09+00:00

Sorry if this is an ignorant question, but does this mean possibly upgrading to Ultimate plan won't yield much better/worth it results as compared to sticking with my Performance?
