TL;DR Bolded
I've had this issue for months (maybe longer). I'm not sure when it started, but here's what happens:
My monitor will go into standby mode, after 3-7 minutes (no set amount of time) it will wake from standby, display nothing on the screen for a second (a black screen), then it will turn back off, and show DisplayPort in the top right corner before fulling going back into standby mode.
For a time after replacing my DisplayPort cable I noticed the monitor would only do this wake cycle every other time the monitor went to sleep. It's very inconsistent, sometimes now it will wake after an hour, other times it starts within a few minutes of standby mode, and sometimes it doesn't seem to wake at all.
Any help or insight would be so greatly appreciated! This has been driving me nuts for months!!
So I finally got an energy trace report and found the (potential) culprit. It appears to be the AMD display driver "amduw23g" going haywire and waking my monitor.
No idea what to do about this still.![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)

I've tried:
- Clean booting Windows
- Booting into Safe mode
- Running Windows update
- Updating BIOS (was running latest BIOS already)
- Updating drivers as listed on ASUS' website
Running an Energy Trace which showed my GPU was causing the system to wake up (energy trace link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JNVVLei1l_jLvuIv3-AAu6Pfad14eShp/view?usp=sharing)- Newer Energy Trace (after all the troubleshooting): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jCZrvXoKXb2NIsvQJly1T5zyqdq8iNy2/view?usp=sharing
- Installing latest GPU Drivers
- Clean uninstalling GPU Drivers using Display Driver Uninstaller and reinstalling fresh
- Clean uninstalling and then flashing OLD display drivers from 2022
- Switching DisplayPort cables (twice); first new one was DisplayPort 1.2, most recent is 2.1 and VESA Certified (so no potential of pin 20 issue).
- Switching to integrated GPU (problem goes away)
- Removing and reseating GPU
- CMD sfc /scannow (errors found and repaired; ran multiple times to be sure)
