Question Loose DisplayPort connection on GPU ?

[BlasphemousMusic]

My wifes monitor has been going black for a few seconds and such and I tried everythig to figure it out. Well tonight I just lightly tapped the connection where the displayport goes into the GPU and it seems thats the issue. Is there any way to fix or remedy that short of buying a new gpu? They are very expensive and rather elusive lately. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Have you tried removing the gpu and reseating it? Sometimes gpu sag can cause bad connections. Also is it the port itself that is loose or the cable that goes into the port?

Which GPU is it? Make/model. Is there only on DP on the GPU? No mini DP, or HDMI?
