If it works, it works. Probably just a bad cable or something

Mine does that every once in a while, hasn’t led to any further issues.

Even computers have sleep issues. If it keeps happening just disable system sleep and just sleep the monitor or shutdown.

Have you tried turning it off and on again

Had this happen to me once. Went in and tightened my video card connections and no issue sense.

Restart it, I had the same issue the other day when i did a GPU Driver update, it should come back around.
Nyakuru
I once has the same problem. It went into a test card like artifact then rebooted and everything went back to normal.
ImUrFrand
reboot, fresh drivers

simple, just dont click…..
(usually it is the cable, unplug and plug it to see if it works)
FriendlyFyre_tv
I unplug the monitor and plug it back in to fix this. It happens about once a year.

Your drivers probably glitched because of Sleep Mode.

You need to sit down, and have a talk with your PC about not abusing hallucinogenic chemicals.
In all serious, I hope it gets sorted and you’re back to gaming soon.

Always wake your PC up *gently* – with hot chocolate, and buttered scones.

Am I tripping or do we see more of these types of posts recently? Are we seeing software related issues, hardware or cables having increased failure rates?

Drop the OC and try what happens.

Power cycling the monitor, not the PC, might allow the video signal to sync correctly if this happens again in the future.

You’re being signalled to blow your cover and reveal your true purpose, sleeper agent.

Probably either a faulty gpu driver or windows 11 being weird. Update your gpu drivers and windows and you should be fine.

had this once, panicked my balls off, reset it and all is fine, hasn’t done it since.

Clearly it was having a nightmare, talk to it soothingly and gently rock it back and forth.
