Monitor Connection Issues

Hi all, I need some help with my current main windows system. I’m running a Ryzen 5 4500 on the Asrock a520m/ac in conjunction with a 3060 12gb. I have now 5 times reinstalled windows on this computer because my secondary monitor will just cease to connect when plugged in. It will appear as though it’s going to, the screen on my main monitor with flash slightly inwards and come back out I’ll lose control of the screen momentarily sometimes it will even go black as though it’s attempting to transfer information to the second monitor, but nothing. Now I am on a fresh reinstall and usually that has fixed things, this time however it did not. I’m not even sure what the hardware problem could be at this point, any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. For clarification as well, one of my monitors is a 27in Dell Alienware 2k 240hz OC 280hz monitor and the other is an LG 27in Ultragear, 27GL83A - B. The second monitor is the LG and it’s the one I’ve been having consistent issues with. I didn’t think it could be hardware related because of the reinstalls fixing my problem consistently but because of the frequency I’m beginning to question the reliability of my parts as well.
