I should add that enabling HDR on the PG27AQDM works perfectly. No issues (with enabling). Both VG27AQ monitors are connected VIA Display port, the other monitor is HDMI. any ideas on resolving this?

cant replicate on amd gpu, so most likely driver related. meaning nvidia has to fix it. from what i heard the hdr experience on nvidia is pretty much like a D&D dice roll

I've noticed it's only with the vg27aq's. Both of them cause the same issue. Guess I could try a laptop and see if it does the same thing

my guess its driver related though, but not sure how to try debug this other than maybe looking at journalctl and dmesg and see what happens when it crashes
