No Game Mode or Input Signal Plus with NVIDIA Geforce 4080

Hi,

I've got my PC connected via an HDMI 2.0 cable to my Samsung Q95A TV (the PC is also connected to a 1440p monitor. This has been working fine for about a year.

I recently upgraded my GPU from an NVIDIA GeForce 1080 TI to a 4080. This new setup worked for maybe a week before the problems started. First, I was unable to enable HDR, but Game Mode was working. A day or so later, Game Mode also stopped working. I can't enable input signal plus either. Doing any of these things causes the TV to immediately lose signal to the PC. This is at 4K/60hz.

I tried playing around with resolution settings, using a different 2.0 cable, etc., but nothing works. I can still watch TV on my PC as long as I don't put it into Game Mode or enable input signal plus. I am waiting for a 48gbps cable to see if that maybe solves the problem, but I've seen a lot of threads about this kind of issue with the 3000-series cards and absolutely nothing that indicates Samsung has solved it.

I tried contracting Samsung support, unfortunately the chat was unhelpful and they are unable to provide remote assistance in a language I speak very well.

Has anyone managed to fix this with a 3000 or 4000-series NVIDIA GPU? Is my TV now just an expensive brick?

Yes I tried expensive optical hdmi which did not work, ordered cheaper ones from Amazon, and it has worked ever since .

It seems the cables are hit and miss you get good and bad even amongst the ones that do work.
