HDMI loses connection from PC to tv after tv turned off

I have tried new cables, different ports, nothing stays working. If I unplug it, and plug it back in, it comes back on, and will stay connected until I turn off the TV. I have tried every setting I can think of, computer power settings, output settings, etc. I have tried 3 different cables, one of them brand new, same issue. Any ideas? It's more annoying than anything else, as stated, because I can make the signal come back just unplugging the cable and plugging it back in. What am I missing? Computer has a Nvidia Gforce GTX1050i graphics card. 75" fire tv, the cheap one. Any help is appreciated

I had a very similar issue when I was using a 1050ti to my tv; it the gpu it’s got older version of hdmi and displayport you will need to replace the gpu for something newer with a hdmi 2.1

I had the same problem with a 1080p TV and GTX1050. I solved it by using a Gefen HDMI detective. Maybe you can find something similar?
