PG32UCDM black screen during game sessions!!

So i am having this issue since the day i bought the monitor.

At first it was happening during a certain game,the callisto protocol.

Now it is happening also in Destiny 2.

As i am playing these games with HDR on,after some time the screen goes black and i have to manually turn the monitor off and on again in order for the image to appear again.

I had at the beggining the factory firmware,after i updated to MCM102 and now i have the 103.

This issue seems to be consistent on all firmwares.

I know it is not related to my windows setup because on the same pc with a different monitor this does not happen.

I have my pg32ucdm connected via dp.

Any suggestion would be much appreciated!!

Brand new. I had to wait 3 weeks for them to get some in stock.

I'm still shocked that they haven't said a single thing about this widespread issue with a monitor of this price bracket. Shameful.

I did a factory reset and it appears to have fixed it at least for the time being. Before, I was getting lots of errors that the pixel cleansing failed and I wonder if it had something to do with that. Anyway, I fired up a game and played for a few hours and didn't have an incident. Whereas before, it would at least happen once.

Whatever happened to those that have received the message from Aureliann about the custom PG32UCDM105S+Log bios? I have received the message last August and have decided to test the bios today, but when I checked the shared google drive folder in the link they provided, all files are gone.

Is there still no fix to this? @aurelian

I would DM Aurelian to re-obtain the firmware and same happened to me, the files were empty. I got a black screen while using this firmware and per the SOP I sent a screenshot to Aurelian, but haven’t heard back. I honestly would be shocked if they address this.

Would appreciate the firmware as well. I've been experiencing intermittent black screens while on the Windows desktop and have been unable to find a solution.

you need to send a dm to:  Aurelian

Since I got the log firmware and I followed to procedure to reset my screen during the upgrade process, I have NOT seen any black outs anymore, that is for 2 weeks now.. tbh I only play 2/3 hours in the evening every other day.

Haven't had any black screens since I did a factory reset and I am on the regular 105 firmware.

Hey there!

Can you tell me if the VRR and Proximity sensor are turned on in your monitor?

Thanks a bunch!

The proximity sensor is on but VRR is off. I wasn't even aware VRR was off.
