I'm having issues with my GTX 970 and my G sync monitor 

For a while it was badly lagging in games. 

The other day the screen started going blank whenever I play games. 

What happens is that it switched to the game for a few seconds then goes blank for a few seconds, this repeats 

Dissing g sync fixes the blanking screen and most of the lag 

In my monitor settings it says mode normal so g sync is not recognised by the GPU 

Is this a GPU issue or a driver issue? 

I updated to the latest driver and the lag persisted, but then the blanking screen started happening  

 

I will be ditching the 970 soon for a 2080 Ti anyway after the reviews come out 0so I can cope with G sync disabled for a few weeks
