Hello,
I wasn't sure where to post this I noticed the following issue:
I got a supposedly 4k 60hz HDMI 10m cable from elsewhere, and while playing games from pc to tv on 4k sometimes it goes blank for a second and then works fine, to happen again later on, or throws some artifacts instantly and they dissapear. Tried this on Witcher 3 and Shadow of the Tomb raider.
The above happens only with the 10m cable, I moved the pc next to the tv and used the Switch cable and worked fine on 4k 60hz! Originally i thought it was the gpu, but since i have 2 Vegas, i tried both on the top vga slot and same things happened.
Basically I have my pc in another room and trying to connect it to the tv which is same floor across the hallway. Must be like 8ish meters if not 9 from hdmi port to hdmi port hence i cannot go lower amount of meters.
What can I do, are hdmi cables of that length crap? Whats the point in saying they support 60hz if they don't. Ill try to send it back but it doesn't solve my issue, I will have to try another cable from someone else i guess.
