Screen goes completely black after awhile. May have something to do with Steam, not sure. Why does this happen?

Power management set to blank screen after set period of time?

Unlikely as I updated the language options and it hasn't happened again yet.

Happened again. It seems to have to do with the r9 390 graphics card. Found settings that fix. However i have no context as to what the settings are for (possibly power states, though only conjecture). New issue on reinstalling Linux has happened in that i cannot open grub with sudo gedit to alter grub text file to enter this data.
