Windows 10: Windows 10 flickering/turning off secondary monitor

Hello,I tried to google this issue but all I got were posts from ~2018, and about vga.I have main monitor connected by display port and a new secondary monitor also connected by display port.Frequently both monitors flicker to black which is something I've heard a friend with multiple monitor setup curse about before, but didn't think it'd happen *this often* - or more annoyingly the secondary monitor just randomly turns off because it doesn't get signal from display port anymore? I can leave the pc to idle for couple of hours and both work fine.. soon as I get back and have a program runnin

:)

 

Monitor Dim and Flickers

I have a new Dell Inspiron 3668 cpu and running it with my old Dell ST2010 I have run the windows "troubleshoot screen flickering in Windows 10" from Windows help. When I go to task Mngr. it still flickers. So, I uninstalled the display driver as suggested
and then ran the "Check for updates". The problem still remains. Any further suggestions?? My next step is to just replace the monitor and assume Windows 10 will not run it!
