I recently bought a new PG27AQWP-W monitor and connected it alongside my existing monitors. However, I'm having issues where my other OLED monitor stops displaying anything unless I unplug my IPS monitor. I'm wondering if this could be a power issue or something else. My current setup includes:
- PG27AQDM (the OLED)
- PG27AQWP-W (the new monitor)
- PG27AQN (the older primary monitor, which runs at 60Hz but is capable of 360Hz).
I've switched cables around but to no avail. The NVIDIA settings only recognize 2 out of my 3 displays and won't let me activate the PG27AQDM. Can anyone provide some insight on what the problem might be?
I managed to resolve the issue by replacing the PG27AQN monitor with a different 1440p monitor, as it appears the PG27AQN was too much to handle along with the PG27AQWP-W.

From what you're describing, it doesn’t sound like a power issue. Instead, it might be related to resolution, refresh rate, or HDR settings. Each of those impacts how much data your GPU can output. If any of those settings were increased with your new monitor, it could explain why you're having trouble with multiple displays. You might want to check each monitor's settings to ensure they're compatible with each other.
I used to have a similar issue with my setup. I had to reduce the refresh rate and resolution on one of my monitors to get everything working smoothly again. You might try lowering those settings to see if it helps!
