Hi, so I did a clean install of windows about a month ago and kinda since then am experiencing the issue that after starting my pc (not every time but often) my primary 240hz monitor sits at 60hz and my secondary monitor is disabled. So everytime I experience this bug I have to go to windows settings, enable my second monitor as well as putting my primary back to 240hz

- In Nvidia settings my primary monitor sitesa at 1920x1080 res under "Ultra HD, HD, SD" instead of "PC" where there is only 60hz in the dropdown menue View: https://imgur.com/a/UJTu7v0
. Furtheremore my wallpaper that I use on my second monitor only resets to the same I use on my primary. Updated to the very last NVIDIA drivers as well - no chance. My monitors are obv. connected to my gpu via display port, cables sit tightly and I assume should not be broken since it works perfectly after I enable the settings again and is only an issue after my clean install. Drivers in general should be all up to date. Gonna give some more detail now in case it's important, if I forgot to mention sth. just ask, kinda desperate since I tried a lot I found out here in the internet to no avail. Thx in advance.

EDIT: Using VESA Certified DP Cables has (thus far) solved the issue. Hopefully it stays that way and wasn't just a coincidence. If it was I will update again but hopefully will not have to D:
