    I have had a Dell Ultrasharp Ultrawide 34 inch curved monitor for a while (Dell U3417W a replacement for the U3415W I had for a couple years before that), is now a good time to upgrade? Any recommendations for £1000+ monitors that I'm going to stick with for a long time? Professional event...

    2080ti black screen, try vertical mount?

    So I have a 2080ti - and occasionally the screen goes black and GPU fans go to max. I have to disconnect and hold down power button for a good 20-30 seconds before I can get it to boot back up.

    So after some time of use, my screen goes black and comes back. When I can see the desktop I might get the odd flicker of a horizontal line, sometimes a thick line of noise. It was particularly bad just now, so I opened up heavens benchmark - graphics card was about 50c, and the black screen...
