So, I just bought a new 144hz 1440p Monitor. Before I was using 2 1080p @60Hz Monitors and everything worked fine, but after connecting the new monitor I noticed that when gaming the screen turns black for a few seconds and then comes back. Everytime this happens it says "DP" in the upper right corner like the monitor was reconnected. I also see some random artifacts that go across the screen from time to time. The cbales arent the problem and neither is the monitor itself, because I tested with my old GTX 950 and it worked fine.

 

Specs: XFX RX 580, Ryzen 7 2700x, G.Skill aegis 16gb ddr4, samsung evo 970 m.2, asus x470 pro, corsair 650w psu, win 10

 

I already tried reinstalling latest and some older AMD drivers, disconnecting the 2. Monitor, setting HZ to 120/60, resolution to 1080p, undervolting. Another thing I noticed was that the GPU runs at 50°C on idle with fans randomly revving up and under load it can reach 85°C at 144hz and 75° at 120hz. Any help is aprreciated. Any help is aprreciated.

You're sure it isn't the cable, because this sounds exactly like the cable.

 

Did you try another one anyways? DP cables don't cost much.

Brands I wholeheartedly reccomend (though do have flawed products): Apple, Razer, Corsair, Asus, Gigabyte, bequiet!, Noctua, Fractal, GSkill (RAM only)
