Monitor shuts off ''No HDMI Input'' when playing games.

[A|b|d|u|L]

Hi guys, I need some help....

When my pc is on, i can go on youtube, watch movies, browse the web all day and all sort nothing will happen, everything is perfectly normal. But if i start playing a game e.g GTA V maybe 10-15 mins or sometimes even lesser than that, the monitor will just shut off whilst the pc is still on and running. It displays this message ''NO HDMI INPUT''

If i reset the pc the monitor will be back to normal usage, but if i load up a game it will go off again and displays the same message. idk what's up.

I unplug the hdmi, changed it for another pair but the same thing keeps happening over and again.
This is so stressful.


Thnx in advance.

Sounds like a signal or refresh rate problem between your video card and monitor. Go into your video card panel options (right-click on desktop). When in the options, click Display. Make sure your monitor is shown. If it is go to step 2, Refresh rate. Make sure it's set to 60hz minimal or the highest it can go. Click Apply at lower right of screen.

edit: Games use a different refresh rate so a lot of times have to set it manually. Especially if after getting a new monitor/4k monitor, etc. If you use a 4k monitor/television as your display make sure you have the right cable. Display Port cable is for HD/4k gaming. It looks like a HDMI port but one side is angled/slanted.

Here's a photo of a Display Port cable. On the back of your computer where your video card is there might be an input. If so, use Display Port instead of HDMI for your PC:
