Hello everyone! I have a few monitor bugs to share with you to see if there is an easy fix. I'll state my CPU, MOBO and GPU for reference:
CPU: i5-6600k
GPU: 1080 Strix Gaming
Motherboard: MSI Z170A Krait Gaming
Monitor: Pixio PX277 1440p 144hz IPS 27 Inch using Displayport

So, here are a few bugs.

1. Computer freezes then goes black. The monitor turns off, then I can't reconnect it without my computer restarting because plugging it back in while on is a terrible idea.
2. The monitor has really... let's just say WEIRD tearing or something. The monitor is freesync (I never use it, I think I disabled it) and I'm using an NVIDIA GPU so I don't know if that is the problem. Here is a video of The Problem
3. Chrome just randomly stops responding... then it crashes after a couple minutes unless I stop it...
That is all I have found! Thanks for the help!

P.S. Sorry about the terrible video quality...
