I recently bought an Acer Predator XB321HK 32" 4k monitor. I finally recieved all my components today, so went about building my system. Using a Asus Maximus VIII Hero Alpha motherboard and Core i5 6600K. Have a discrete graphics card also, but initially want to see if things worked with just the intel integrated graphics. If my Acer monitor is connected via DisplayPort (which it needs to be for 4k at 60hz to work) then my system will not boot. If I connect it after the system has booted, then both monitors go black, and remain that way. The is a freshly built system running Windows 10 Pro and all drivers are up to date. What is going on?
