Bad cable bruh.  Get a new one.  Go DP, all the cool kids are doing it nowadays

You're really hitting a wall dude. First your 144hz doesn't have DP, then you get dvi-dual link and then the cable is a dud.....

Wiggle the cables, if the screen flickers, then you have issues with either the cables, or the connections on the monitor.

And again, what is the model number of your monitor?
