Monitor turns off, fan kicks in

Help! This problem is making me crazy!

Basically, my monitor turns off randomly and the gpu fan kicks in very loudly (pretty sure at 100%), but the system in the background is still running! Once I was using Skype and I could continue the audio call while the computer was in that state :/

There is no reason to suspect heating problems, I monitored for a while using speedfan and it showed regular temps, both while gaming and when idle.

Any ideas? Thanks!
