I am having Amazon send me a replacement cable tomorrow and I'll try that and report back. I don't currently have an HDMI cable to reach my TV so I would need to get one to test that out. Which I will if I have to, if this replacement cable gives me the same issues. Thank you though.

The TV is an extension of my displays. I can drag things from my monitors to my TV.

This is the cable: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015OW3QVS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1

My GPU only has one HDMI port and I need it for my 2nd monitor as it's a cheaper monitor and is very limited on connection types.. It has like 3 displayport outputs though.

I haven't tried a different cable. I am currently using a brand new DisplayPort to HDMI cable (DisplayPort on my GPU and HDMI on my TV). I may try to order another one if all else fails.

I have two monitors and a TV hooked up to my graphics card. My specs are as follows: Main monitor is 1920x1080 144hz Acer Secondary monitor is Hanns-G 1920x1080 60hz TV is 1920x1080 60hz My computer specs are: i5 8600k GTX 1080ti 16 GB Ram SSD The issue is that when I full screen a video on my TV, my secondary monitor and my TV will go black for a second. Then, my secondary monitor will come back on as normal but the TV will be full static. The only way to fix this is to either unplug and replug the TV, which only works some of the time, or to restart my computer , which always fixes it. This issue occurs roughly 30% of the time I full screen a video. Things I have tried: Multiple different browsers Updating GPU drivers Different HDMI ports I have never experienced an issue quite like this before and I honestly don't know where to even go from here. Save me!

By freezing, do you mean it is stuttering or the game is crashing entirely?

Have you considered just reformatting and reinstalling windows again?

I don't think you read the post correctly.

It's really distracting with how beautiful everything looks. Has anyone else had this issue? It's tanking my K/D in most games because the environment looks SO good! I might have to ween myself off of medium settings until I can handle it.

This is gonna sound weird, but can you PM me your phone number? I can give you a call and try to walk you through finding your fan settings while you're in your bios. If not, we can try this another way.

Apply for a Newegg card. You get a year financing on anything over 499

Can you take a photo of what your bios looks like when it opens up?

I'm sorry for doubting you. That sounds excellent.

I can't tell you for sure because everyone's BIOS is different. But it will probably be in your bios somewhere. When I get home, ill research your motherboard and get you a better answer.

I realize that this wasn't your issue because you said you tried it in an SSD and are still having issues, but this post implies that you sold a guy a hard drive when you didn't know if it was properly functioning or not. That sounds scummy to me.

In most games, you'll never see "100% CPU Usage" when you hit bottlenecks on the individual threads. Games aren't programmed to utilize an entire processor, usually. You can hit a CPU bottleneck @ 50% load (2 threads on a quad-core; 4 threads on an 8-core, etc). I'm almost certain that your CPU is bottlenecking you. edit: Also, after looking up benchmarks for your CPU, I see most people pair that particular processor with things like a 1050ti, a 970, and (At most) a 1060. It probably can't keep up with a 1080ti.

Shouldn't your CPU fan be plugged into the the spot on your motherboard labelled "CPU_FAN"? This won't necessarily solve your problem but you'll want to make sure it's in the right spot before you do anything else otherwise setting a fan curve would be pointless.

If your graphics card is not running at near 100% while playing PUBG, it is usually because the CPU is bottlenecking.
