Monitor not turning on

Yairz

So I recently got this problem with my monitor ( Acer Predator XB271HU Abmiprz 27-inch WQHD (2560x1440) NVIDIA G-SYNC Monitor ) Whenever i turn my computer, it will not turn on unless I try it several times, everything seems to be working whenever it actually does and there seems to be no problems whatsoever, I have to admit I havent cleaned it in about 2 months but sometimes I've done it for 3 or 4 with no mishaps. The monitor turns on and logo displays for a few seconds, the options can be tweaked like normal, i even changed the display and power cables but to no avail. Whenever it turns on I try to monitor temperatures thinking it might be my graphics card but nothing seems out of the ordinary. These are my specs

I-8700k Asrock fatality z370 k6 Msi seahawk ek x1080 gtx with another ek block 16 gb ram 250 ssd 2 1tb hdds Corsair rmx 850

Any help or suggestions would be immensely helpful

bumping, 

 

i tried to use an hdmi cable and use it on the motherboard, it worked like a charm but after i came back from work today the same problem persisted and took several tries before i was able to make it turn on

See if there are any bios or chipset updates on the motherboard manufactures website as that could resolve the issue

there are some but im a total newbie when it comes to all that so i havent given a try, someone else in another forum told me to give another monitor/tv to narrow the problem and heres what happened

so here are my tries and i am more confused than ever,

mb hdmi to tv = 1 in 5 yes

mb hdmi to monitor = 1 in 3 yes

gpu hdmi to monitor = 5 in 5 yes

gpu dvi to monitor = 2 in 5 yes (but only if i have hdmi cable plugged in as well but if i toggle inputs the dvi input freezes up and wont open windows)

gpu hdmi to tv = 3 in 3 yes

you should only ever use your gpu outputs, and as far as the dvi thing that could potentially be fixed through a driver update for your graphics card
