Green Screen

current setup. AMD FX 8350 black ED
FX 5600 gpu
16 gb memory
256 gb SSD OS
1 TB storage
2 TB external

this has happened like 5 times now. I'm not real sure what's going on to be honest. still new to Linux in general. when watching a movie off netflix or youtube just in general about once a day for 4 days now I get a complete green screen. I can still hear sound but only see a green screen off my monitor. I can reset my PC and everything is back to fine. earlier today I noticed some DOTS on my screen as if maybe the monitor is going bad but I'm not sure it doesn't have that on my second Monitor when I use it.
