I have a triple monitor setup, and when I go fullscreen with a game it distorts one of the other monitors?

I have a triple monitor setup, and my PC has two RX 480's in CrossfireX. When I open a game that goes fullscreen, (I don't use eyefinity) the monitor to the right of center goes black and then when it comes back there are lines going up and down the screen like on an old VHS tape. After I close the game it goes back to normal. Any fixes?

What type of cables are you using? You said that you don't use Eyefinity...is there a reason why?

2 HDMI's and an HDMI to DisplayPort with an active adapter. I don't use Eyefinity just because I'm not a fan. I like to be able to snap my programs to fullscreen without having to adjust them across my three screens.

Do you have all of your monitors connected to one GPU? Did this occur with one specific game, or all of them? I'm going to assume all of the drivers have been updated. Lastly, what games is ?

Yeah, all three are going to one GPU and it happens with any fullscreen game. I've used Space Engineers, CSGO, ARK, Crysis 3, and Battlefield 3.

Definitely should not do that. Disconenct the other monitors in Windows and and try to play the game on that one monitor. That way we can rule out it is not a monitor or cable issue.
