I recently bought two AOC monitors, one 4k, and one secondary 1080p 144hz monitor. Both are being powered by DisplayPort in testing.
First of all, the 4K monitor has a meltdown if it has to output any non-native resolution fullscreen picture: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqssCVPrfhk&ab_channel=jkteddy77
And second of all, the 1080p 144hz monitor has a similar meltdown if its output is changed to a different hz rate, no matter the resolution, if it's already been switched from high to low. : https://youtu.be/zOewPAjD34U?t=1m12s (sorry bout the quality, still figuring out its pattern skipped to it happening for you).
It seems I can start a game at 60hz, and change it to 144hz once. Then whenever I try to go from a lower hz to a higher hz after that one chance, the glitch happens, and I cannot make sense of what temporarily fixes it.
I cleaned my drivers with DDU, installed the latest AMD Catalyst driver, tried using 3 of them now actually. I correctly installed both monitor drivers, and device manage can confirm and recognize them. Both have the correct FreeSync ranges in Crimson, and are both identified as display port 1.2 displays.
Is this my R9 290's Display Port causing the issue? I am really afraid too, but I was thinking whether or not a gpu BIOS update is the solution here. My R9 290 is among the first few batches ,and has never had to be updated before. These are my first experiences with using the display port also. None of these issues occur if I use HDMI or DVI.
What could be causing these issues?
