I have got two severe problems with this otherwise fine LG monitor.
To be able to use the 75 Hz of this monitor, FreeSync has to be activated in the monitor's menu .
1) There is no signal when I start my pc (no BIOS/POST/Boot Manager). No signal up until it has booted into an OS.
2) When using Win 7 (this does not happen in Win 8/10 or Archlinux/Debian) and I disconnect my second monitor, the LG loses either immediately the signal or loses it after starting a movie or a .gif. I can't do anything (not even activate the other monitor) and I have to reboot.
First off all the second problem should not be important , because I'm planning to abandon Win 7 for good rather soon, but I need to make sure, that it doesn't appear on Windows 8/10.
Regarding the first problem the only fix I have found is to deactivate the FreeSync setting and I will get a signal right from the start.
However the problem is, that I have to manually change this setting for every restart in order to be able to set it to 75 Hz.
I'm using a R390 with the latest driver and a HDMI-HDMI connection and I tried already different cables.
Has anyone experienced similar issues and knows how to fix them?
Is it worth to try a DP-HDMI cable or an adapter?
Thank you!
btw.:
You can change the FreeSync range (CRU 1.3) from 40-75 Hz to 37-75 Hz and LFC will work.
