Install the card in other PC along with different monitor. If card gives you the same result then it is time for RMA (if warranty is not expired) otherwise check your PSU.

So from what I can tell it's a problem in bad capacitors under the GPU chip - usually blocking caps. You can try to RMA the card or if there is a way get someone to replace the caps. The problem would be to know which caps have to be replaced and their value and quality required No bios or under clocking will help in this case.

Jheanell Leger had a problem like that. In her case it was the PSU. Tried everything, not a single problem was found except the black screen was there while gaming like in your case. I would suggest you to ask her.
