Question Display problems on startup

[ovelionnn]

Hi, so I have this problem actually for 2 years or so, but it never been so problematic and im not sure now what causes this.

First of needed specs:
Display: AOC C24G1U
Graphic Card: GTX 1060 6gb
Using DisplayPort

On startup my display look like it's defective / blurry / flickering. Photo:

But it was never this big, and i just had to wait like 1min and the display was normal again.

But this time (photos) i've waited 5/10min and still the same issue. It's probably because i didn't use my PC for a week.

I always thought its my graphic card. it needs time to get warm so contacts get better connected idk.
Because today this problem was there even after 10 mins, i tried to swap cable. Still the same issue.

I had to swap from DP to HDMI and it worked!! Even though still a bit pixeled at start:

Now im not sure if the problem causes my monitor or my graphic card, or the Display Port of them. My Monitor should be fine i bought it like 2,5 years ago.

Also want to add when i used HDMI and went to Nvidia settings -> Change resolution and changed from ULTRA HD, HD, SD 1920x1080 120HZ native to PC 1920x1080 144HZ the display was again flickering,blurry like at the beginning.

So my question is if i can somehow repair this? If not what causes the problem, graphic card or monitor? ( Because i can't test it, i dont have any other monitor or PC with Displayport)


Thanks for reading!

Without testing one or the other (GPU or Monitor) with different hardware it is hard to tell. If you have a system with IGP taking out the GPU and running on the onboard may reveal if it is GPU or monitor.
