its not the video card... I have exactly the same problem with my geforce 970 plus strange picture artifacts ... look at all the other problem threads, the're plenty of people with these major problems. mine's just brings "no signal" after some seconds/minutes of this endless on/off loop.... very disappointing.
Interesting. The ''No Signal'' also happened to me once or twice.
The problem i had actually returned about 2 weeks ago, and i have been fighting with Asus and AMD support about it.
Asus just simply replied with: ''Wait for new AMD Drivers, or buy a NVIDIA Card'' Implying that the Monitor is not the problem.
AMD just gave me a different way of uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers, which did not fix the Issue.
I now have until the end of January to return the Monitor to Amazon.
I do like the ROG swift, but if i can only get 85hz, it is not worth it, when i can get 2x 1440p 60hz Monitors for almost the same price. (i do use dual monitors, that's why 2x)
The problem is, not knowing what the problem actually is, is it the AMD Drivers, the GPU or the Monitor.
So now i have 3 choices until the end of January.
Wait for new AMD Drivers, if that is the problem
Try a new NVIDIA Card (though i do not have anyone interested in buying a new GPU atm)
Or return the Monitor and get 2x 1440p 60hz Monitors for almost the same price. (since i can't get it beyond 85hz)
I would go ahead and try my luck with a second ROG Swift, but not knowing the problem, just makes it not worth the hassle (there are no artifacts, there is no blurring, there is no tearing and most problems there are on the Forums, just this 100hz,120hz and 144hz problem). I also keep reading the RMA process with Asus, so yeah..
