And the DisplayPort cable solved the problem with the monitor, though i still plan to get the electrician to make sure we haven't got some fundamental problem elsewhere. Thanks to everyone who replied. Much appreciated :-)

Well this is fun. After trying a locally bought HDMI2.0 cable that was even worse than the current one, and then ordering a DisplayPort1.4 that's not yet arrived, I realised a pattern in when this was happening, which is about 8:30am and 10:30pm every day. Which just happens to correspond with...

After more research... So it's possibly a throughput issue if I'm using a HDMI 1.4 or lower cable? The video card specs are: HDMI-2.0b*3 (Max Resolution: 4096x2160 @60 Hz) Display Port-1.4 *1 (Max Resolution: 7680x4320 @60 Hz) And the monitor specs are (limited information from Acer website...

The problem with the local PC store is that I'm a bit....rural. They had to order the PSU specially for me as they had none in stock with PCI-E 6 pin connectors. They're not going to order a different one just for testing, so I either need to plump for an immediate upgrade or travel a bit to...

None of the other PCs in the house have PSUs with 6 pin PCI-E, so swapping out isn't possible. The MWE White is the V2 though. Are you suggesting it is likely to be a power issue given the problems I'm having? Honestly thought that the CM PSU would've have enough for this rig at 550W given the...

Pretty sure I know the answer to this one, but just in case: Just upgraded from an old, old Nvidia GeForce card to a better Gigabyte GTX 1050 Ti OC Windforce. As my old PSU didn't have a 6 pin PCI-E adaptor, I also replaced that with a CoolerMaster MWE White 550W. I'm running dual-head with one...
