Hello, I've got a new Dell monitor set up as a third display for work. It's connected via a DVI to DP cable into my graphics card, with two other screens already plugged in and the GPU also connected. When I play a game on the main screen, I notice horizontal black lines appear through the third screen. I've adjusted refresh rates and resolutions without fixing the issue, and none of the other DP ports seem to help. The problem only occurs when a game is running. All drivers are up to date. It's just annoying, though. I also removed one screen recently and it didn't change anything. Any ideas?

For those interested, I’m not overclocked and here you can view the power usage.
