So i just bought an acer xb252q monitor that is 1080p at 240hz. I was playing a game of apex and then the screen just went full on white and stayed like that after a few flickers. The game etc was running and unplugging and replugging the power cord for the monitor made it go back to normal. Just turning it off and on didn't work, had to pull the plug on it.

It however went back to a white screen after a few seconds. I disabled g-sync and then the problem stopped happening. What could be causing this? Is the monitor faulty?

I'm using a VESA certified DP 1.4 HBR3 cable.
