Hi yall! Ive searched for four days to find an answer to this but maybe you wonderful people can help.

The HDMI on my Aurora R16 Desktop PC has stopped recognizing HDMI input. the problem's been off and on but i usually just get a new Anker 2.1 HDMI cable and it somehow works again. i know thats a dumb temp fix but I work a lot. I'm definitely not rough on my cords or anything. my computers on my desk and barely moves. This time the new HDMI cord didn't work 🙁 so I tried a DisplayPort cable. that works fine EXCEPT when I'm full screen gaming, every now and then (always at a bad time ofc, haha) the screen will turn black for like, 2/3 seconds or so, and then turn back on & say DisplayPort on the screen, usually with no sound until i click out if the game then back in.

I'm super sad about this. The HDMI port looks fine to me and ive tried making sure cords are very secure, updating firmware, wiggling (ha), updating bios, drivers, messing around in the nvidia control panel, disabling gsync & freesync, using a c to hdmi adapter (from c attached in my computer to hdmi in my Odyssey G5 monitor), rebooting (i keep it off except when im using it anyways) but im pretty new to pc gaming so not sure. do I need to replace my HDMI port? from what ive seen that requires soldering so could I do that myself? im pretty good with tools, am a carpenter by trade. alrighty, thanks so much in advance if any kind soul is willing to help me.

with all the love from seattle <3
