Dram failed to post with Displayport

[Histok]

Got a new monitor that uses Display port. It only fails to post after a second restart of the system. I can get around it by initially plugging a HDMI cord into it and then plugging in DP. I've checked all the connections, bought new memory, changed refresh rates, tried three separate DP cables, updated chipset drivers and the problem persists.

If it's a 1 monitor configuration, and a gaming PC, there is 0 reason to use display port. HDMI is faster and provides for better responses.

I'd RMA the monitor for refund and get one without display port.

My GPU only has 1 HDMI and this would be my third monitor. My other two only have a 60hz display. This was my only option for a budget upgrade for a monitor.

You have 3 monitors for 1 PC and call yourself budget ???

60hz is antiquated and some games will throw up on it, also your eyesight will diminish faster.

As FPS is tied to vertical refresh frequency nowadays, you want 1 good, modern monitor, not 3 mixed matches.

I finally figured out the issue. My monitors power plug wasn't fully plugged into the wall... I have no idea how this would cause my Pc to hang on the Dram every second restart, but whatever. I finally noticed it when I was swapping the monitor with my roommates to further troubleshoot. Hope this helps someone else who may be having a similar issue!

Lmao Thanks man. I don't think I would've figured it out without those thoughtful, accurate, objective posts of yours.
