PC operated generally well, though WiFi performance fluctuated occasionally (reason unknown). Restarting resolved the issue. All fans functioned normally and lights illuminated without anomalies. My three monitors—main, vertical, and sim racing—showed mixed results. The secondary/vertical monitor displayed correctly only when powered through a specific port; switching ports or cables didn’t help. I attempted to disconnect and reconnect the GPU, but no improvement occurred. The main monitor also failed in the alternate port. After reordering cables and trying a different monitor, only one display remained functional. The screen size changed unexpectedly, now showing 1024x768 at 60Hz despite being set to 2560x1440 at 165Hz. Windows and the monitor refused to recognize the correct resolution. I updated the driver, which seemed to stabilize things, but the underlying problem remains unclear. I haven’t replaced the GPU since accessing it requires disassembly. The situation has become quite erratic, shifting from smooth operation to total chaos after a restart. Assistance would be greatly appreciated.
