I have an iMac 12,2 which has this annoying bug of randomly black screening. The fans run in the background and I can hear the OS sounds whenever I use my keyboard and mouse so only the display dies. Sometimes, It occurs whenever I lower my brightness from max and when I play some games on fullscreen but other times it happens randomly.
GPU: AMD Radeon HD 6900
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2400 CPU 3.10GHz
Memory: 8 GB RAM with 3 more empty slots.
Recently, I installed windows 10 on my iMac using OCLP and had just got around fixing the BSOD issue when this happened. This issue had persisted on my mac os as well.
One temporary and unreliable fix I cam across was to hold the power button and spam keys until the OS booted onto login. However this doesn't seem to work on windows.
If anyone could guide me to the right direction, I would really appreciate it because this is my only working computer rn.
Also, this issue doesn't seem to occur when I'm light browsing or doing menial tasks like downloading.
My default mac OS is high sierra 10.13
