Pink Screen with HDMI

Go to solution Solved by xFluing,

Nevermind, I fixed it. My monitor's color space was set to RGB mode, and upon setting it to Auto (or YUV) the problem goes away.

I have a 144 Hz monitor which uses HDMI 2.0 as input. Whenever a full screen game is set to a refresh rate below 144, everything turns pink, now I wouldn't have posted this here had there not been a caveat: shitty ports like Dark Souls 1 won't let me choose anything higher than 60 Hz (not even with DSFix) so I'm pretty much stuck with a pink screen, how can I fix this?

Sorry for reviving an old thread, but how did you find the option to change the color space?

I'm having the same issue, but can't seem to find the option on my monitor

Try using a DisplayPort cable if your monitor has a DP input. It's all really fuzzy but I think I didn't have this problem with a DP cable.
