so i have the gayest monitor problem of all-time. I'm a tryhard who loves to play fps games in high framerates all day so I bought a 1440p monitor that runs at 144hz. for the first two months everything was honky dorry, thing ran in 144hz pretty gud. then one day I noticed it kept flashing black random. Eventually the flashing got so bad i could only use the monitor for 2 seconds before it blacked out again. Bought a new cable, problem with the flashing is gone, but now the stupid thing can't hit 144Hz for some reason. Would only show 60Hz on the refresh rate select. I shit you I had to go into nvidia control panel, make a custom resolution to manually change the Hz. I tried 144 and the whole EVERYTHING on both monitors blacked out, only came back after reboot. So I started pushing a little bit more the next time. 80Hz worked, then 90Hz, then 100Hz, then 110Hz. When I tried 120Hz, same thing that happened with 144Hz: EVERYTHING blacked out, nothing worked, no signal, nada. Wouldn't even switch back after 20seconds, just fucking gone. The highest I was able to get it to go without blacking out is 115Hz, arbitrary as fuck I know. But for some fucking reason, if I try to push it to 116Hz or 117Hz, again, everything blacks out, have to reboot computer.

It's a display port cable that's apparently 1.2+ but it comes from chinkland and has like no specs.

Is it the cable? Is my graphics card just shite? How is that possible when for 2 months it worked great?

I don't even know what the fuck would cause something like this to happen.

Didn't want to read the wall of text, but did you make sure your monitor itself is set to DisplayPort 1.2 mode rather than 1.1? That's what I had to do with my Asus 4k one.

The irony is that considering the amount of shitposting on this board, tech support could only increase the amount of quality content.

Here's your tech support you whiny twit, don't buy unspecified/undocumented chinkland shit and expect to receive any support. Especially from a board thats more about discussing technology rather than helping poo-in-loo pajeets fix their shit.

Chink cable is shit. If it can't sync over X refresh then the cable is garbage and not to 1.2 specs.

I think your first cable was correct but shit the bed, and your new cable might be out of spec with VESA standards or some shit.

Try a good cable
