Asus PB287Q "No Signal" problem while sleeping...

[Matthew Stratford]

Hi There,

 

I have a question for you all because after quite a bit of research, I still can't find the answer.

 

I have an Asus PB287Q, which I purchased after forgetting that Linus reviewed it as one of his many 'Best Gaming Monitor Yet' monitors.

I absolutely love it, it looks great, plenty of cool menu options like turning the LED off while in auto-discovery standby mode, however my laziness leeds to this slight glitch.

 

When it is in standby (the computer is off without the monitor power button being pressed to turn it off), it has begun randomly turning on, showing the standard "DisplayPort: No signal" message, and then turning back off again.

 

I could simply turn it off using the button to correct this, but I would really love to know if anyone else has had this with this (or another) monitor, and any steps that could correct it. The only thing that possibly happened was swapping my rig from an AMD system to my new Intel Hackintosh box with a GTX 970, but the mobo on the new one is in Deep Sleep mode in the bios to prevent another (seemly unsolvable) problem regarding my specific motherboard and the way the old PowerMac G5 case light works.

 

Any ideas?

 

Regards,

Matthew.

Weird.  You have a very special use case here.... I don't have an answer to the question, however I am looking into this monitor and have a question... Is there any noticeable input lag?  I ask because I play a lot of FPS and want to know how this thing handles quick movements...

Erm, I haven't noticed anything, I certainly can't see a lag between the mouse and screen. I didn't really buy it for 4K gaming as such (being 1) a Hackintosh running OSX most of the time, 2) I've only got a 970), however Drift 3 plays really nice (Min and Max frame rate in benchmark at 60FPS in 4K), but that's an old game.

 

It's a bit slow turning on though, in comparison to another of my screens, meaning windows will sometimes jump to the second screen first for a second after waking it up from sleep. Also, another thing being display port and my other being DVI, it defaults to the DVI on boot until OSX / Windows boots up. Slightly annoying but nothing I can feasibly do.
