So I seem to be having an isolated issue with my new rtx 4080...randomly while playing games the display would turn off and back on as though there is a display port cable issue(loops continuously until restart of pc) ive also noticed at time when the display returns for a few seconds it is as though the res has dropped to 240p although nvp still shows 1440p...another issue is sometimes this perceived res drop will happen without the screen turning off and on and a restart or just pulling the display port cable out and reconnecting would fix the issue. So now for the tricky part this issue did not happen with my rtx 3080 and the same monitor...and im on a brand new build.
Initially i installed the 4080 on my 9900k build and i assumed its driver issues i did not use ddu as i was waiting on my new build. Once my 13900kf build arrived I did a completely clean install but the issue has persisted. The issue is also not triggered by load as cs go seems to be the number 1 culprit although it has happened most recently in RE4 Remake. The issue did not occur in full playthroughs of hogwarts legacy and witcher 3 enhanced. Stress testing using port royal has also not produced the issue. Using the snipping tool during the res drop and viewing those images after restarting the pc shows the images at their normal 1440p res. If I do RMA immediately im worried this issue will take a long time to troubleshoot as it seems to be uncommon.
Troubleshooting I've done so far:
Alienware 1440p 240hz
13900kf
Palit Rtx 4080 gamerock
360mm Fractal lumen aio
z690 aorus ultra
32gb ddr5 6000mhz
1000w 12vhpwr ud
1x 2tb nvme , 1x 1tb nvme , 2 x 1tb hdds
Update: When playing through re4 this morning the screen started to go in and out of standby once again but this time the fans went up tp 100% although afterburner showed temp as 67c.

Troubleshooting I've done so far:
- Reinstalled drivers
- Tried 2 different display port cables
- tried the uefi firmware update
