Rig
1) i5-6600k
2) EVGA GTX980 TI
3) 32 GB memory
4) SSD + HDD
5) W10
 
Putting aside I run 3 ASUS monitor surround (G-Sync) and a 4th aux monitor, the centre DCP port on the GPU causes the monitor to flicker periodically.
I have used different monitors and different ports, and therefore, it appears to be the centre DCP outlet that is the issue.
With reference to the NVIDIA Control Panel:
1) Change Resolution - 3* 2560/1440/60hz
2) Desktop size position - it has a mind of its own !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
any ideas appreciated

    Have you tried a different cable?

    AMD Ryzen 9 7950X,  Corsair Mp700 Pro M.2, 64GB Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5  X670E Steel Legend, MSI RTX 4090 Associate Code: H5U80QBH6BH0AXF. I am NOT an employee of EVGA

    Hello,
     
    does this issue occur when you only connect one display to the center DP port? Meaning the other 3 displays are not connected to the card?
     
    Please let us know.

    Sorry guys not to sure how to push forum buttons
    Yes have tried different cable
    Yes the monitor continues to  flickers with all other monitors/cables disconnected.
    This problem has only recently occurred. I have had issues setting up G-Sync monitor surround in the past

    I just dont see how people do triple monitors with only 1 video card.
    They must be used to 30 fps or something.
    My Titan X with 1 2560x1440 @ 120hz barely runs new games at 50-61 fps.
    Sure, older games run at 400+ fps if I let them, but my old old old gaming rig takes care of all those I cant run on new os's anyway.

    Flickering monitor from the centre outlet
    I have deactivated the K boost mode (1200MV) back to default of 1025MV. (EVGA Precession XOC)
    I still have GPU Clock at 75 and the MEM Clock at 100MHZ
     
    The flickering monitor problem has stopped. I will continue to monitor the issue
     
    All constructive thoughts appreciated

    UPDATE FLICKERING MONITOR
    problem not solved monitor occasionally flickers on but mostly off
    W10 was professionally clean installed
    Therefore  problem is either the card or its software
    Recapping GTX 980 TI 3*ASUS 27 inch monitor surround (G-Sync)
     
    Any ideas appreciated
