My 4 year extended warranty ran out 4 months ago so of course the screen has just started developing a fault.
First: HDMI input started displaying full white screen and now no longer works
Second: DP input will sometimes suddenly go blank and flash up the "no input" popup. Pulling and reseating the DP cable (at either end) brings it back.

Seems like the controller is failing and it's just a matter of time until DP stops working too. Is there anything that can be done to recover this?

If not, what is a suitable modern equivalent that can be used for both WFH and gaming?

The main issue I already had with this screen is that HDMI is limited to 50Hz which hurts to look at on a 120Hz screen, but it only has a single DP input. I assume modern replacements support higher refresh rate on HDMI.
