Hi @Ralston18 I have managed to fix the issue! Firstly I reinstalled Windows and worked from scratch installing all drivers and programs thinking something may be conflicting. I switched my cables to direct Displayport > MiniDP without the use of adapters so the connection is purely digital...

Hi @Ralston18 just an update for you. I have replaced all power cables and even used a monitor belonging to a friend, no change. More worrying now is the fact that wavy lines have started appearing on the screens when I run games, I'm starting to think this might be a motherboard issue? Any ideas?

Hi @Ralston18 I'm thinking of ditching the VGA cables first of all and buying new power leads and displayport cables. If that doesn't fix it I think it's time for some new monitors. Thank you very much for your input on this. I'll see how I get on over the next day or two.

Hi @Ralston18, just an update. I lost my patience in the end after testing the PSU with a multimeter this checked back fine. I took the PC to a local store and they've run a full system check, CPU, Motherboard, PSU, GPU and Memory, everything ran perfect and they even showed me over 2 monitors...

You will probably know more than me on this but on reflection, if the GPU or its ports were faulty, the issue...

Hi @Ralston18 thank you again for your support. I have not used a multimeter before no and sadly I have no alternate PSU to test. I could purchase a replacement but if the PSU is not to blame then I may be left a few £100 out of pocket unless the company I used accepts returns. I'm UK based...

Hi @Ralston18 thanks for your reply. My apologies its a 750w PSU a FSP 750-50ern 80+ SILVER. This has been installed for the entire 5 years also. Its not necessarily flickering, its like my monitor is being disconnected and reconnected repeatedly. It turns on and off until I disconnect the...

Hi, I'm just looking for some advice in relation to my desktop. My rig is over 5 years old now and is: Z170 Gaming Pro Motherboard, Dark Rock Pro 3 Cooling System, i7 6700k 4.0GhZ, 16GB DDR4 RAM, Nvidia GTX 980 with an 850W PSU. I have 2 AOC I2369VM 23" IPS LED Monitors setup and connected to...
