MSI MAG 341CQP QD-OLED monitor flickering above 60hz refresh rate

Hello everyone!

I just brought my new MSI MAG 341CQP QD-OLED monitor today, and i have some pretty bad problems with it, while plugged in via display port. 
When i put my monitor to anything higher than 60Hz it starts this weird flicering, and also an ocasional power cycle, as you can see in the linked video.

I tried switching to the included hdmi 2.1 cable, but that was even worse becouse i couldn't even set the right resolution on that.
I also tried it with a type C cable, and with my Asus vivobook pro 15 m6500xv-ma050 laptop, it was better, but still coudn't work as it supposed to (nothing higher than 100 Hz).

I'm not sure that my monitor is bad, but there is a chance for that as well im afraid.

I ordered a better DP cable, so i will try that, especially, since i dont know wheter my current cable is 1.4 or not.

Any other idea would be very much appriciated!

So you also tried your laptop, but what were you powering it with before the laptop? A desktop with multiple DisplayPort ports? Can you try another?

 

 

Was the source HDMI 2.1 capable? 

HDMI 2.1 according to the manual can do the full 3440x1440 @ 175Hz

Ohh yes sorry i forgot to include my specs:

GPU: EVGA (RIP) XC3 Ultra 3080 TI 
And yes, it is HDMI 2.1 compatible (as well as the laptop)

Also i updated the latest nvidia driver as well!

Tried other DP ports as well, but to no avail unfortunately
