hi guys, my brother just bought a second 144hz monitor to go along with his 60hz one, both 1080p. The 60hz one is connected with HDMI while the 144hz is connected with a Display Port. problem is, when he connects them both to the pc, it shuts down. To turn it on again he needs to remove the cable and turn it on again. Any ideas? he's got a 1050

what PSU does he have? . sounds like gfx card draws more power than psu can deliver and dies when you plug in second monitor.
