4K 60hz Green Screen Issue

[Spencer]

Hey guys I am having a worrying (and frustrating) issue when trying to play games in 4k on my 1080p 60hz monitor. Basically the entire screen goes green when trying to run any resolution higher than my native res (1080p). The games also dont seem to like it when I use the ycbr444 color profile which I always enable to remove that "washed out" look on my monitor.

Anybody have any suggestions on what could be causing this? The most common solutions I have recieved seem to be to turn off the windows 10 game bar which I have already tried but to no avail.

Are you a NVIDIA user?

Yes

You will want to use RGB color output at 8bpc and GPU display mode[imgur.com].
Use the settings in the screenshot in other words ;-) (only at 4K resolution)

I cant use RGB the colors are way too washed out for my taste. And I have ALWAYS used ycbr444 and its always worked up until now

Actually using RGB "full" instead of "limited" removes the washed out look and resolves my green screen issue. But thank you anyway for your help Kitteh!

Because u need to change "Limited" to "Full"

Use RGB + FULL and only HDMI or DP

If you have pixel issues or mouse cursor is in-accurate with using DSR scaling.
Set smoothness for the DSR below 15-20% range

Well yes and no...Limited still has a washout on TV's...even on mine.

It should just never be set to Limited; otherwise you are limiting the RGB range.
