Monitor goes black while gaming

David.A

My Monitor which is 1 Year old has started to go black for like 1 seconds every 2min or so while gaming. Sometimes more often sometimes less often. The Monitor is the Alienware AW2520HF. I have changed the Display Port Cable, updated GPU Drivers ands Windows Drivers. Still the same. I have 2 other Monitors and those are fine. This only happens while gaming and more often when its loading something ingame or switching from mission to menu or something. My GPu temp etc is also fine. Anyone know what the reason for this could be?

Have you overclocked the monitor in any way? Also what games has this happened on? What I would do is try to change different graphics settings such a refresh rate and Fullscreen settings and see if that solves your problems.

Dell monitors have this issue with G sync, disable it and it will probably go away... if you want G sync there some odd temp fixes I can suggest but it can be tricky.
