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 richard

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 Dave3d X-Plane is not a game its aviation. I can tolerate the 20/25fps
