Solid green screen

[The_Llama]

I recently bought a used rx5700xt, and put it into my pc. Since then, I’ve had this problem while playing games where after anywhere from 10-30 minutes, the screen goes solid green. Just completely solid; no letters, and it basically stops the whole pc too. I’ve had it happen while on discord calls, and I can’t hear anyone, nor can anyone hear me. It basically crashes altogether, but the screen goes green, and I have to restart manually. I’m happy to provide any info anyone needs to help.

I’m using a custom build;
rx5700xt 8Gb,
i5-10600k,
32Gbs corsair rgb pro ddr4 ram,
Asus prime z490-p mb,
and an apevia prestige 800 watt psu.

The image is EXACTLY what the screen looks like. It’s just the first result of “green” on google.

I can’t do this now, but when I get the chance I’ll do it. I’ll post any further updates. Thanks.

Also, how old is this used GPU?
I’m wondering if the thermal paste may need replacing.

I don’t actually know how old it is, and unfortunately I don’t have a way, that I know of, to find out.

No worries, either way, wouldn’t hurt to replace its thermal paste regardless.

Yeah, it couldn’t hurt. I’m going to do all this when I have more time over the weekend.

I recently bought a used rx5700xt

It was most likely sold because it was faulty. Did you buy it from a reputable company?

the screen goes solid green
