random changes in resolution

nmhammer2 · October 8, 2016

I'm having trouble with my current setup. I have a 27 asus monitor hooked up via displayport then a smaller procscan tv hooked via a dvi to hdmi cord. the gpu is a sapphire 380 series nitro card. I have no overclocks on the card. what happens is when I'm away for a bit the asus monitor switches to 800x600 or some weird resolution like that. but the tv is still 1080p. one way to fix it is to turn on super resolution in the amd settings or if that don't work I unplug the dp cable and it goes back to 1080p. I've gone to the adapter setting to find the 1080p mode and change it but 1080 is not listed.

If you have your AMD drivers installed then there should be no Windows drivers helping here.

It sounds as if either the drivers aren't installed correctly, or your DisplayPort cable is faulty, since you're not even given the proper resolution.

I'd either replace the cable, or reinstall the drivers and see if it happens still.
