i bought an vg240y the last year.
when i bought it ….. it came with DP cable only and i had an 2.0 hdmi cable from the previous monitor
so when i unboxed the monitor and setup it i t ried to plug the DP cable and play using it but it showed a message 'cable not connected' so i tried to plug in the hdmi 2.0 cable and it actualy WORKED.
but after a while i started to ask my self why its not working and i suggested my 2 friends to get the same monitor and when they tried to use the DP cable it worked for them so i sent them mine to make sure that the cable was alright and it worked when they tried it for them.
then i skipped this part and said its ok i can just use the hdmi , but recently i changed my gpu to rtx 3060 after i had gt 640 , so i started trying games finally on 165 and it was working all good…..but then i saw the HDR option and this option wasnt available with the previous GPU ‘gt 640’ so i went to try the HDR.
first when i turned it on from the monitor and the windows i saw some glitches and weird things then it stopped glitching and then i opened overwatch and turned on the HDR and as soon as i turned it on and joined the shoting range it started to glitch so hard that i couldnt even close the hdr from the monitor or even turn it off so i just unplugged the screen and was dying of fear that i broke my new monitor.
then i just did an alt + F4 and quit the game then clossed the HDR and found out that i has 1 more prob.
so i need help to find why the DP is not working and why i cant use HDR
DP : display port
