So im having this problem that whenever i play diablo for more than 10 minutes my monitor turns off and says it has no connection. Had the same problem with wow and there i just had to turn my directx down to 9 from 11. So im wondering how i can do that in diablo?

Loggern01,

Diablo III is a DirectX 9 game. There's no way to change that.

The first thing I'd check is the temperature the video card is reaching while playing the game.

Download and run GPU Shark from http://www.geeks3d.com/20150626/gpu-shark-0-9-5-gpu-monitoring-utility-download/ Just let it sit running in the background.

Now play the game and let it run several minutes but not so long that it turns off again. Then exit or alt-tab out and open GPU Shark and see what the highest temperature is that was reached. If you need to post the data, you can use the Copy GPU data to clipboard option under the View tab. We suggest opening the Detailed mode first so we can see all of the info.
