GPU SOS. Can't tune GPU or change monitor anymore

So, was playing the MHWilds beta for a solid 20-30 minutes before my screen went black and all my fans turned themselves to 100% for several minutes before i had to hold down the power button to make it stop. after starting it again I can no longer

1. tune my GPU at all, AMD Adrenaline has no option to adjust it, msi afterburner has all the sliders greyed out. I got nothing.

2. I can no longer change my monitors refresh rate, the option is simply gone. I have read

3. My monitors AUX no longer works either

 

Do i need to roll back drivers? disable MPO? update Bios? or is my GPU just killing my pc, or it it something else?????

any helped appreciated

Something may have failed in your RX 6800.  Do you have another computer you can try it in?


As Albert Einstein said, "I could have done so much more with a Big Al's Computer!".

Check Device Manager to see if the RX 6800 is disabled there.

It was! I re-enabled it and it said it had driver issues so I downloaded the latest and it is all working as it should now. But that leaves me wondering, why did it do that in the first place? Just quit out of nowhere? I checked the event viewer and the only errors or critical errors said stuff like "pc didnt shut down properly."? My temps never go above 76 with high or ultra settings. Is there something else I could test?

Sorry for lack of knowledge this is my first pc build

No need to apologize. I would run DDU, and check the box that stops Windows from automatically installing display drivers. There is a bad driver that Windows Update pushes. It can cause all sorts of issues. After DDU I would install the latest driver from AMD directly without using the autodetect tool. Some people have issues with the autodetect tool too, so I advise people to avoid using it. 

Otherwise, if the machine is running to your satisfaction, I see no reason to worry. I would only worry if the problem persists.
