    Identical cables? I'm thinking maybe a ground loop between them through the cables... If you can plug the two monitors into different outlets it might help with the diagnosis.

    Nvm it stops working after I reset my computer even when they are plugged in to separate outlets on 2 different  circuits

    OK, so not a ground loop through the cables then. :( Maybe MSI has some idea what's going on?
