Screen dies when over 60hz

I’ve got an ASUS FA506IV with a 144hz screen and this has started happening (bottom)…

It started with 144hz, so I setup a Windows profile for 120hz (pic ^) and was fine for a while but is now doing the same. Setting it to 60hz is (fine for now).

Big problem is when I boot, only a bar at the top is visable I think due to running at 144hz, so I have to use grub blind and can’t use the BIOS.

Question(s):
Has this happened to anyone? And is this the screen that I can replace, or something driving the screen that I can’t?

Either you need a better display port cable or the internal cables are loose

You can try reseating them

Thanks for the reply.

I’ve reseated the eDP cable a couple of times on the mobo end. I’ve yet to pull the frame off the screen and reseat it there but will try tomorrow.

So potentially its the cable, not seated right or damaged from opening/closing so not allowing the bandwidth needed?

I’m not sure why it happened gradually over time but guess its something to do with how DP works?

looks like you have a memory overflow…
where your gpu is displaying the wrong memory addresses.

check your windows integrity with sfc/scannow and dism.
once done repair any faults and re-install your gpu drivers.
