I just purchased a 166hz g-sync 1440p Monitor. I noticed after it goes to sleep and comes back on it will flicker off and flicker back on. Is this a known issue? Or did I get a bad monitor or a bad DisplayPort cable?

166?  Which monitor?  I've never heard of that refresh rate before...

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

Just didn't want to exchange the monitor if there was a know driver or Windows 10 issue with gsync. My first gsync monitor. I didn't see anything searching around by that doesn't always mean anything.
