Hello PC gamers,

Good news and Bad news

THE GOOD

I have finally upgraded my PC to the latest, something that finally tops my Laptop in power. I have also updated my TV to a 4k SUHD Samsung 8 Series.

(I know there are afew on this site that dont believe it when someone says they brought something, i dont normally post photos on the internet with my personal belongings, just saying. anyway on more important matters)

My PC is fitted with the Primary i7700k CPU, a Gigabyte Geforce GTX1080, 16gigs of DDR4 3000 Corsair Ram, a Gigabyte Z270 Gaming K3 Motherboard.

THE BAD

The big problem i have right now is i dont get a Signal from my PC to TV at all.. i have tried changing HDMI cables (2.0) i have also tried changing HDMI ports and the only way to get a signal to the TV is by plugging my PC through my Pioneer 5.1 AMP Sound System however by doing that my PC seems to be locked at 30hz.. and the only way to get 60hz is by changing the Display Settings to 1080p (Yuck) haha.

I have plugged the PC in 2 different Monitors, and a Hisense 4k TV and seems to work fine. With the Samsung.. its another story, i dont even get a flicker on the screen, just a No SIgnal message telling me to plug something into the Port. Now the Samsung TV does work with my Laptop and my old AMD PC perfectly fine.

What i have done wrong? I called Nvidea, they have no idea why its not getting a Picture. I have called Samsung, they sent a Tech over and they have no clue why its not getting a Signal. Whos fault is it? Is it the TVs fault or the PCs? Both devices work with everything else, just not eachother when plugged directly.

Both PC and TV have been updated to the latest firmware.

 

Curious to know if this has happen to anyone else when connecting there PC to a Samsung 4k TV?
