My monitor keeps losing signal, ive tried both displayport and hdmi cables, any solutions? (also idk if no internet connection may affect that by any chance).

*Loses signal when not used for about a minute or two (usually but sometimes it stays on)
*Moving mouse gets it back up, as if it went to sleep but it says it has no signal

ah i see.. well, g-sync shouldn't have anything to do with it. normal monitors should works just fine. It really sounds like a windows problem for me since there must be something that detects whether you're idle or not. Idk, maybe check your softwares, there may be some "optimizing" horseshit software running in the background or something. at least for me, it doesn't sounds like a hardware problem.

wait... your problem isn't about the GPU isn't it?
can you check your windows setting? there should be a feature that turns off display if you left it idle for X minutes. maybe that's what making your monitor lose signal. moving your mouse will turn the display back up because windows detected that you're not idle once you move the mouse.

just type "power" on your start menu, you should see "power & sleep settings" open that and you'll see the option directly under "screen". Just change it to whatever minute you want, and done.
also, sometimes, a cheap mouse can make a very small movement on it's own without being touched, and maybe that's what keeping your monitor on occasionally, who knows.
