So, just had a rather weird thing happen with main rig, the one in the specs. When watching a YT video (so, a light load) the display went out for a couple of seconds, then went in again. GPU started to emit fairly high-pitched buzzing, not unlike coil whine whistling. I then quit the video and, being a bit unsettled since it happened so suddenly, ran a light-ish load test via GPU-Z PCIe render test. After like 30 seconds of the test with the buzzing somewhat steady the whole PC shut down and the PSU emitted a light buzz (OCP triggering?). I shut down the PSU, then the power strip everything is connected to, then pulled out the strip out of the socket. After, I reconnected everything in the reverse order. Now things are… fine? PC starts up and boots alright, no new noises from the GPU (other than light coil hissing/crackling, but that was present before too) and the light load is running just fine, no shutdowns.
So my question is - what the fuck was that, should I test something else? Should I be worried at all? Most importantly - does this mean the GPU is showing signs of croaking and I should shop around for a new one?
