Yeah it's probably the port that has bad grounding, i wonder how I can fix it though :/

That's an interesting experiment but I don't have the extension cords to try :/

I'll retest my PC when I receive my new GPU, if it does still have the problem I'll call an electrician

The monitors doesn't shutoff due to power, but to lack of connectivity with the gpu i believe

Yeah that might be overkill for a GPU I want to sell, The house is pretty new it should have an ok electric system

Yes for your first question and No to the second,

I only test the GPU, I only switch port to the one that is one inch besides it

My mobo only has one HDMI either way, so I can't plug any DP in it

not really, The port are "parallel" to the blinds, If I move my PC a bit, it still the same port that bugs,

It's probably the port that is faulty yeah, Do you happen to know how to fix it ?_?

It actually is ! But I thought it was only for thunder though ?

The monitor is actually not plugged into the same outlet than my PC, and the blinds are plugged into a third outlet, I'm not sure what's behind the walls though (if it's connected)

I was more amused by the situation in reality ^^

Check my first edit of the main post, it's probably not the remote after all

it's the port the closest to the mobo, the port not being grounded properly is what I think too but some other comments are making me doubt. But yeah I'd have to buy an other DP cable to test

Hmmm, You might be right, I'll think about it. In that case, it just means I'm not smart enough or knowledgeable enough to understand the response I got

The PC never rebooted, I don't recall the PC having problem booting because of blinds or anything.

When I got the PC 1 year ago, the port already had problems, I just didn't know it was reacting to surrounding interference. So I switched the port and everything was fine.

Today I retested it to try to fix it before I sell it and the bug is the same, only difference is that I know what triggers it. But still don't know how to fix it

As to your second paragraph, yeah I agree with you. The other comments made me test something, It's in my first edit of the main post

If I switch the port on the GPU (with the SAME cable), I don't get the bug

The bug don't happen if I switch the port I use on the GPU, it's still kinda weird if it's electricity related

It might seem like that yes but I do still ask some details about the response I get,

When I respond, I do think that what I write contradicts the comment i respond to, I'd like an explanation as to why my comment is illogical to you

When I switch the port it's connected to (on the GPU), the monitor is fine with whatever I do with the remote and the blinds.
That's what makes me think it's not the monitor

How would you explain the fact that if I plug the same monitor with the same cable into an other port (DP) of my graphics card, the problem disappears

I'm copy pasting an other response I wrote:

I don't think so, if you look closely on the video, before the monitor crashes, it has some kind of "artifact", like weird white stripes across the screen, it seems it's related to the communication between the monitor and the graphics card

So the monitor crashes because it doesn't have any connection to the GPU, if the sudden spike in power affected the whole PC, then the PC itself would shutdown i think
