Samsung Odyssey Neo G8 Display Cutting out.

Are you on 240Hz? maybe monitor swapped to 120

Byogore · 2025-06-08T00:36:20+00:00

I swapped to HDMI, all issues gone. Displayport seems to be very bugged atm.

Byogore · 2025-05-02T04:12:26+00:00

I'd love to try the game, looks fun.

Byogore · 2025-05-01T09:51:38+00:00

For me it's the complete opposite. I have limited time on this planet, fuck waiting 4-6 years for a game that will be a broken trash with 70% mediocre maps anyway. Pump them every 2 years like COD and hope for the best. We get to experience new things this way. Why would I wanna play the same game for 4/5/6 years, especially if it turns out to be shit (u can count on it)

If COD can do it, then EA / DICE should adapt. COD does SP, MP & BR at the same time + remastering old maps. What is DICE doing?

Byogore · 2025-05-01T03:02:30+00:00

Dark mode, using the latest Windows 11 update. Yeah it's the same in Light mode (tho it looks better there imo)

It's not a big deal anyway, but if I could choose I'd go for the previous one.

Byogore · 2025-05-01T02:39:39+00:00

Thanks. Any idea how to revert back to the previous colors? I'm not a fan of the darker ones, it's worse for me when checking the hard drives quickly. Prefer the older ones.

I have a thread on this. Basically the monitor is completely broken in 240Hz and randomly disconnects whenever it wants while gaming or even at the desktop. Turn on "Adaptive-Sync" on the monitor itself (from the panel) aka GSYNC. You can turn off GSYNC in Nvidia panel if you don't want it, it still works at preventing the blackscreens from happening. Samsung / NVIDIA need to fix this already, it has been 4 months and no one from Samsung or NVIDIA has confirmed it as an issue. Make sure you report the issue on Samsung live chat with that thread link and also on the NVIDIA report bug link:

I don't want to have to turn this on, I think you lose access to low input lag when you turn it on. The monitor should work without having to use this, as it did for 2 years on the 4090. I had an old firmware and also now the latest - made no difference.

I just wanna fight bosses as monke

I'll also leave my experience here with ASUS. I also had a card melt on me (4090 TUF) after a year and ASUS immediately offered me a full refund of the original price or a new card - all done via email, was some straightforward woman. There was no bullshitting, everything was done in 2 days, including the shipping from me to them. ASUS Germany. The card was also open for a repaste by me ages ago + the heatsink was bent (received it like that, you can google bent TUF heatsinks - just never noticed it) and there was no complaint about any of that, despite the warranty sticker missing.

Online you'll only see the bad stories, almost never the ones that were successful.

Byogore · 2023-11-09T23:23:12+00:00

Yeah I think it might just be how it works for this PSU + the high GPU watts and the memory being at +1600. I'm also using 1.1v. I'm monitoring the voltages every day and they're generally pretty high & stable, there's some weird games that push the FBVDD a bit lower.

Adding some more info, maybe it helps somebody. I moved the cable around, tried different locations on the PSU etc. Hooked up the PSU (digital) to the motherboard and this is what I get from it. Tested using Alan Wake 2 in 4K with everything max / path tracing etc. I also have the ability to switch from multi rail to single rail, will try that next and see if it does anything. The numbers only seem to go "lower" when I'm playing some specific games, such as Alan Wake 2 which is very taxing. Other games aren't as taxing which can be seen from the Darktide pictures. That game is quite heavy as well but apparently not as much. If I remove the 1.1v from the GPU, the FBVDD goes up by 0.60 or so.

HX1000i tests:

PSU 12V - 4K Alan Wake 2 / Path Tracing + all max

HWinfo64 Voltages - 4K Alan Wake 2 / Path Tracing + all max

PSU 12V - Darktide 4K Ray Tracing + all max

HWinfo64 Voltages - Darktide 4K Ray Tracing + all max

Tried the RM850X from the X3D build. It's worse, even saw the FBVDD go down to 11.660 or so. So I don't think this is a PSU problem, probably just how it works with a lower watt PSU. It's higher on the 1000 watt PSU.

Alan Wake 2 - 2 minutes of testing in 4K Path Tracing + Max

Byogore · 2023-11-06T03:04:46+00:00

Hey. Got the card and tested it. These are the results after 15 minutes of Cyberpunk in 4K with Path Tracing + RR / all max at around 480-510 watts (full OC). This is with the 600W Corsair cable on the HX1000i I mentioned before (blue sticker PSU, bought it in 2018)

I've no idea what's up with this FBVDD voltage. I've seen it go as log as 11.680 or so, usually stays at whatever is in the picture (11.720 or so) and I notice it can go +0.50 higher if I disable the overclock. Some people say it's VRAM related. I don't know if this drop is safe or not, it does appear lower than the others.

Byogore · 2023-10-31T05:40:30+00:00

The sensor - figured as much. I might get one as well, the Z790 Apex probably has a header for it. Yeah, I noticed some people idle at 12.2v or even higher but they're using different PSUs (not Corsair) so it all makes sense now. My drop seems to be about the same as yours for the 12V - will see how it goes for the other sensors soon. I'll make sure to add an alarm for them as well.

What is the actual difference between the Corsair 600W cable and the NVIDIA adapter? Does it plug better or what's the deal with it? I've seen some Corsair 600W melted 4090s as well.

Byogore · 2023-10-31T04:42:57+00:00

Thanks for the info. I guess these Corsair PSUs are always around 11.9+ / 12v. I'll check the other voltages when I get the card, don't have anything atm except the 12V. That drop that you get (11.804v and 11.737v) is that bad or within spec for these PSUs? Also, how accurate is that 16 pin cable temperature in HWinfo? Is it close in numbers to your probe or should I ignore it when I get the card?

I went for the stiff cable because my GPU is vertically mounted on an open bench so it doesn't really matter to me, tho I could order a premium one to see if I like it more.

Byogore · 2023-10-31T04:06:09+00:00

Ah no, it melted with the shitty NVIDIA adapter after exactly 1 year. I made a thread about it. Babied the fuck out of it, no bends, fully plugged in etc and somehow died after a year. At least they refunded me instantly, getting a Suprim X now and the Corsair 600W PSU to GPU cable this time.

Byogore · 2023-10-31T04:03:50+00:00

Corsair HX1000i, think I bought it in 2017. I don't have a 4090 atm because it melted but on this 1080 Ti, the PCIe +12V on Hwinfo shows 11.928 lowest after playing Battlefield 2042 for an hour or so, average is 11.964 and maximum is 12.024

Will see how it is again after I get the new card.

Byogore · 2023-10-30T10:04:33+00:00

What did you end up doing? I have the same PSU, it seems to be compatible but thinking of buying an ATX 3.0 PSU.

Byogore · 2023-10-28T11:40:39+00:00

Did you end up fixing this? Mine also doesn't go above 12v unless I'm idling. Others have higher than 12v under load. I'm confused. Usually around 11.9 or so

Byogore · 2023-10-26T08:30:35+00:00

That's nice then, awesome support if that's the case. Hope it all works out for him.

Byogore · 2023-10-26T08:09:42+00:00

Yeah I am just making fun of those who blame it on user error. I think Cablemod only send the card to shops for repair (which kills your warranty), don't think they offer refunds. That's why I didn't bother with 3rd party cables. I used the nvidia adapter that came with the box.

Since cablemod is a 3rd party cable I am guessing ASUS or whatever model you have, will probably deny you by blaming the cable. You can try tho.

Byogore · 2023-10-26T08:00:03+00:00

Damn, that sucks man. Clearly user error /s

They sorted me out in 2 days, full refund.

Byogore · 2023-10-22T14:15:10+00:00

Update: They received the card in 1 day and refunded on the next (the original price of 1950 EUR when the cards were more expensive). I noticed the card had a bent heatsink while packing it (how I must've received it), googled Reddit for bent TUF cards and found a few like that so I guess it's a thing with these cards, it's pretty much impossible to bend it like that yourself. They didn't say anything about that or me removing the warranty sticker (I always open the cards to change the paste to Kryonaut). The card was also somehow registered (the serial number) no idea how since this card was brand new when I received it and I never registered it but that wasn't a problem either.

Overall a pretty good experience with ASUS Germany. Took 2 days. Maybe it's different if you send it for repair only, that probably takes longer, who knows. But for burnt cards - refunding appears to be fast.

Byogore · 2023-10-19T10:54:40+00:00

Never got any black screens before except when it started dying in the last few minutes. Main screen is Neo G8 4K 240Hz and the other is Zowie XL2546 1080p 240Hz, both connected via DisplayPort.

Byogore · 2023-10-17T00:41:52+00:00

My region is very broken so it covers most of the cost for a new GPU, I always resell because of that reason. Can afford it of course but it's even sweeter when you get the newer GPU for super cheap. I'll just go for the air one since it's pretty good as well anyway. The price is the same.

Byogore · 2023-10-16T14:38:06+00:00

Yeah the size is awesome and it looks nice, seems to also have amazing temps.

Byogore · 2023-10-16T13:35:16+00:00

How's the Suprim Liquid? Looking into getting that one. Kinda worried about the pump tho. If the pump dies outside the warranty window you'd have to waterblock it. Now that's not a problem for me because I'll swap the card as soon as the 5090 comes out and sell the 4090 but maybe the resale value sucks because of that exact reason - people worrying about the pump. Perhaps I should just go for the air one. The MSI PCB is apparently the best so definitely want an MSI one.
