It can also happen if a light gets turn on in my apartment, i tried using a different power source, re arrange all cables, reinstall gpu drivers, clean the hdmi cable from dust;.

Is there any solution?

What monitor do you use?
Does it have a "eco modus" ? When yes, try to disable it.
And when you have the option to auto detect the input source, disable it when you can.

Plugged in with HDMI, DP or DVI ?

ViewSonic

not sure what eco modus is, sorry.

Plugged in with HDMI

I will look into disabling the auto detecting for input source.

eco mode* this is an option for reducing the power consumption.
Are you using a power strip? when yes, how much slots does it have and how much are used and used with what kind of device.

Can you try to plug the monitor in another socket ? Maybe without a power strip.
Try it also with a socket in another room.

Sorry for the late reply, if i put my monitor cable onto the power input on the wall then i won't be able to use the power strip for the PC and desk light.
I tried a different socket too, didn't work.

Could it be the HDMI cable dying?
