  1. ---- UPDATE --- So, around 1month use i have been getting the problem once every 1 weekish, its not consistent. These last 4 days i have been using a high quality HDMI cable & its been good so far no issues, until today, i was lifting my mousepad off my desk & whilst doing so i got very bad static electricity, it zapped me and was close to my monitor.. the screen went black for 1 second & went back to normal. This got me thinking, could my issue be related to static electricity this whole time & the previous DP cable was a crappy quality one that had 0 resistance towards it?? & If so, what can i do to prevent the static electricity interfering with my display connection? thanks. Also is it dangerous?
  2. The thing is, i haven't got the problem since.. its been roughly 20hours of computer use without any issues.. just left here being paranoid now
  3. Recently decided to purchase a 2080 for my old system "MSI Gaming X TRIO 8GB", after installing the card in a new case with a new PSU i only just realised the RTX cards don't have DVi for my 144hz ASUS LUL.. so i got a new monitor, the "MSI OPTIX MAG271CQR". I put everything together, made sure i used DDU properly in safe mode, latest nvidia drivers, started using the system & began trying out games.. 5 minutes in I start to see strange tearing all over my screen followed by my screen flashing constantly :(. After all the flashing & crazy tearing stops i see my resolution has been changed to 1920x1080 (was on 1440p).. I have no clue what it could be.. another 10mins after it did the same thing again so i shut off my system to check if the card is seated in properly & try another Display Port, i launch my system to test again, played some games for about 3hours thinking that the problem is gone.. however it spazzed out again... this time it kept flashing for over 3mins straight.. after that stopped i've been using the system for over 12hours without any issues yet but i am very paranoid & no clue what the problem could be.. System specs: i7 3770K (stock fan with no OC cause i was really dumb at the time when buying a non K mobo rofl, running hot, hits thermal throttling when gaming) ASUS PB875-M G.SKILL RipjawsX DDR3 2133 C11 2x8GB clocked @ 1600 Corsair HX750 RTX2080 MSI Gaming X TRIO 8GB Windows 7 The plan was to just buy a 2080 for now while i wait to buy a new CPU/Mobo/Ram within a couple months, even with huge bottle necking i am running all the games i play in 1440p ULTRA with decent fps. Any help/advice is greatly appreciated thank you.
