Windows 10 is installed with dual monitors at 3600x resolution and 1660 Super display. The monitors stay on even after five minutes as per power settings, which is not ideal since I don’t want the PC to enter sleep mode. Instead, I need the screens to turn off automatically and F@H to run in white idle mode. I also have an aftermarket wired Xbox controller, Cooler Master input devices, and a Rebel T7 connected to the system. If anyone has advice on resolving this issue, please let me know. All device drivers are current and Windows is up to date. Additionally, Voicemeeter is running continuously.

My screen behaves similarly—it shuts down only when the computer is powered off, but when I restart it, it activates again. Would you mind leaving the HDMI or DVi connection plugged in after use?

Consider turning off the device. You might try accessing its OSD to see if there are any built-in features.

I believe that's the solution, F@H is the reverse of "idling." It seems best to turn off the monitor manually; no apparent problem there.
