Snoopy 1,480 / 15,610 Report Post Posted November 29, 2018 Edited November 29, 2018 by Snoopy So yeah. I recently brought a monitor which turned up yesterday. I went for @Darkling's suggestion and brought Element Gaming 27" QHD 144hz 1ms Gaming Monitor. The monitor runs perfectly fine when I use a HDMI / DVI cable at 60 Hz but as soon as I start using a display port and jump it back up to 144 Hz every so often, under load like when I'm playing games, my monitor blacks out for anywhere between 1 and 5 seconds. - I've already tested it at 60hz and 144hz and 144hz is the issue - Tested with HDMI + DVI @ 60 Hz and it's fine - Tested with another computer with the above and it's fine - I've swapped out my power supply to a decent 550w (From 500w) as I was meaning to do that anyway - I've changed some display settings as something suggested online - https://gyazo.com/de03fcbc54fcd3abb2116bcd088ee097 - Changed "scaling mode" from Aspect Ratio to Full Screen - Changed "perform scaling on"from Monitor to GPU Any suggestions on how to fix this? Any help is much appreciated.
