Hello, I recently purchased a 28" Odyssey G70A and enjoy it, but I'm experiencing a problem where my monitor randomly goes black, loses input, then restarts with the top-right input visible. My second monitor, an LG-29WN600, is unaffected. I suspect this might be related to G-Sync, especially since it occurs more in games when G-Sync is enabled for fullscreen apps. I've tried disabling G-Sync and will update this post with further details. I'm also considering using a different cable—my current ones are DP for the problematic model and HDMI for the second one. I've searched online but found few solutions, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I managed to address part of the issue, but the secondary monitor still shuts down intermittently. I resolved some problems with CRU, though the flickering remains a persistent concern.
