HMDI issue GTX 980

Carde

Just wondering I just got my delivery of the GTX 980 I traded for my Fury-x (got some cash to of course). However when I plug my monitor in through HDMI the colors are all washed out, black is just grey etc. When I plug in my DVI everything is just peachy.

 

HMDI cable should be fine as I used it with my Fury-X without issue, could it be the HDMI port on the card is busted or could it be something else?

I remember that when I first built my PC, I had lots of red and blue but no green (showed by the google chrome logo) on my monitor that I used the previous day with my old PC and was freaking out. Took me 2 hours to realise that the monitor was set this way in the settings with 100% of blue and red and 0% green, so I changed it and it was fine. See if something similar has happened.

Did not touch the monitor settings at all, but did put them back to factory, however if it was an issue on the monitor it should show up regardless of which input I use iirc.

Only got 1, but as I said it was working just fine less then 10 hours ago with the Fury-x before I took it out.

Have you tried another output type?

Works just fine on HMDI, was using that while waiting for the 980 to arrive

Perhaps explain which control panel and which settings. We have the monitor itself, windows stuff and I bet Nvidia has something hidden in their mess of a driver to.

 

Cause you know just because we know things it does not mean we know everything, unless you encountered a problem before there is no sense in believing one should know how to fix it.

Did anyone state specifically that the hdmi worked when you bought it? you may very well have a defective port...

Nope, hence I am asking if it could be anything else. The card is still under warranty, but a defective HDMI port is not a big deal seeing DVI works just as fine on 1080p 60.

Anything in the setting should effect all the outputs and since the cord, mobo, and tv all worked before...100:1 you got a bad hdmi port. I'd stick with dvi, active adapters are like $15 if anything,
