I even went to the extent of plugging in a 250GB SSD installing Ubuntu Mate to see if it was a Windows 10 problem, but nope, as soon as I installed the NVIDIA drivers and ran the card at a higher refresh rate it split seconded black screen there. I also had a vertical line down the left hand side of the screen that completely threw off the screens layout, but turning off the monitor fixed it. When I plugged it into my sons GTX 1050ti, that was using the cable the monitor came with, but the moment I swapped back to my RTX 2080 ti rig (cable and monitor) it happened within a few seconds. It wasn't like I plugged in a cable and it happened straight away, only really started just before Christmas. I have tried the cable it came with that does the same, a new 1.5m cable, which honestly had been working fine since I picked it up in August. Usually happened when I was on the desktop or in a web browser. I had zero issues until about a week or so ago.įunnily enough I never noticed it while gaming either. I still have 6 months of warranty left (July), but I highly doubt they'll use the monitor all day waiting for the problem to appear. He had been using it for a good 5 hours, I just switched it back to my PC and within 10 minutes of it being used the same black screen happened. I tried another monitor (27" Benq 1080p 144Hz), no problems, but oddly enough none for my sons 7700k/GTX 1050ti which I connected the Predator to using the same settings as I was G-Sync enabled. Wiggling the cables DP or Power won't recreate the issues, it's just intermittent, pretty much happens when it wants. I did the usual, brand new DP cable, rolled back drivers, reset monitor settings, lowered the frame rate to 120Hz from 144Hhz, disabled G-SYNC, all still the same thing. Over the last week I've been having issues where the screen will go black for a split second then turn back on, this originally started just on the desktop, there is no Windows disconnect/reconnect sound when it happens, just the blue led goes on then off (I have it set to power saving).Īt first it wasn't happening in games, the last 2 days it's happening when gaming, at least 6 – 10 times a day.
