Hello all,

I just today received my eagerly anticipated Samsung SA750d
but have been hit with nothing but problems.

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-165-SA

I cannot get it to work on the DP which is the whole point of this monitor, I did not buy this for 60hz. If I try to connect it via the DP the screen will flicker horribly and constantly, and I mean constantly (every second or so) turn black and back again leaving me unable to do anything with it. It is only stable at some ridiculously low 576p - and then only at 60hz, anymore and back to black it goes. I am lucky I had another monitor to switch to my main as I could not do anything on it. Have had a displayport link failure warning twice.

HDMI is works fine ... at 60hz.

I researched for weeks on monitors and only bought this over the Benq at the last minute due to its HIGH reviews and quality. I did not see a single bad/problematic review... until now.

Drivers/Firmware up to date, which is the only glimmer of hope google has given me thus far. Do I have any chance and/or where do I stand with OcUk on this? :(

2500k @ 4.6
Asrock z68 Extreme 7 Gen 3
8GB Corsair Vengeance

This is what I am getting btw incase it helps to see what it is that happens.
Switch to HDMI mode and all is fine (@60hz).

I have ordered another mini DP - DP cable incase it is that but some how doubt as it was from OcUk. ;)


Help! :)
 
You never saw any bad reviews, are you joking, there are many problems with dp and don't go by reviews under the product on OCUk as I left a bad review and they neve list them! My point proven realy that there reviews are bad advertising. But look in these forums I have one I get issues with mine changing inputs on dp and on hdmi I can't see the whole of my bios screen Samsung know about these issues and they wont be rectafied on this model.
Regards
