    Monitor loses Connection while playing Games, Pc works fine though?


    Hey since a few days I have the problem that my Monitor loses connection to my PC up to 10 Minutes after I started a game, saying "No signal". My PC is still running, I can still hear the ingame-Sound from my Headset. This only happens when I play a Game, I can be on my PC for hours browsing the Internet (not playing a game) and nothing happens. Additionally, I tried playing the Games "Observation", "Surviving Mars", "Deep Rock Galactic" and "Fission Superstar X". For the first three, It happened after around 5-10 Mins. The last one I played for like 25 Minutes with nothing happening. The last game is a really simple 2D-Game, so maybe the Problem has something to do with the Workload that my Pc has when playing a Game? Im going to try playing Overwatch now and see if it happens there also, will update.

    -Plugging the Cable from my Monitor to my Pc out and in doesnt fix it.
    -I even switched the Cable with another one and it still happens, so It cant be the Cable.
    -I also doubt that my Monitor is the problem.
    -I already completely de- and reinstalled my Graphics Driver and that didnt help either.

    I dont really know what I could try now. My Pc is a bit dusty, I am going to buy a can of air to dedust it. I hope that will work but Im not sure.

    Do you have any other suggestions what It could be and how to fix it?

    PC loses signal to monitor


    While I play a video game, FPS in game start dropping and the monitor loses signal, but the PC is still working. Today I tried the thingy with Capslock and after I pressed it two times, my PC stopped. After I turned it back on it booted, but a black screen appeared and not the logo and after that it rebooted itself and now it's working. I can't play video games at all anymore.

    My CPU is i5-3450 3.10 and graphic card GTX 650.

    I had this problem even on previous version of windows.

    I can watch movies and videos on chrome fine, but when I play games the hell unleashes.

    Please help me *Sad.

    Things to do once connected new G-Sync monitor

    I'm getting my G-Sync monitor today.

    I think I have to take the following steps:

    • Connect 1440p G-sync monitor with DP cable
    • Connect second 1080p 60Hz monitor by HDMI
    • Startup PC
    • Reinstall display driver
    • Restart PC (I always do that after display driver install)
    • Activate G-Sync in NV control panel (I believe also V-Sync is auto on after that?)
    • Set my 1440p monitor from 1080p to 1440p
    • Calibrate my 1440p monitor
    Also ingame, I should turn off V-Sync?
    Are there any problems running a second 60Hz 1080p monitor?

    Is there anything else I should do/know?

    Hi Lisa,

    In order to assist properly, kindly answer the following questions:

    • Have you tried using other browsers like Edge?
    • What error message are you getting?
