    Thank you so much! My issue was the refresh rate was at the lowest setting (it came like that as the default) I upped that bad boy and now the flickering is gone! I didn't even know the slow refresh rate could create an issue. Thank you again!

    Thanks sir, you’re a life saver. I’m glad I watched your UA-cam. My screen flickering problem solved, thanks to your video. I was checking the settings and software updates, etc. Guess what, it was a loose cable at the back of the screen that was half way in. I watched your video and tightened it up. Problem gone. 🎉😂❤ Thanks again.

    It's weird, but I only get screen flicker with certain patterns on Windows 10, such as a high resolution scan of printed media for instance where you see the individual dots of ink at 100% in Windows Paint. Yet this doesn't happen with the same image with Windows XP.
    The monitor's fine, the cable's fine, the connections are fine, most of the time images and video is fine, then for this very specific instance the screen seems to flicker and jump about, even though Windows 10 and the display driver are fully updated.

    i went to the windows start settings and pressed F1 (Debug-Mode), since then my monitor flickers and has a worse resolution. the funny thing is that in all windows or nvidia settings the values are exactly how they should be, also in the OSD of my monitor it says 1440@144Hz, when it‘s clearly not. its only on my right screen and im pretty sure its a windows problem but with the normal settings i cannot fix it. if anyone is an expert please help me

    My Samsung monitor is a G4 260hz one. Got it brand new 2 months ago. Half of screen is half way dark like not fully dark you can still see the sceeen but dark and no matter what I do I cannot fix it. I have talked to Samsung so many times trying everything they recommend like unplugging testing with other thing etc.
    I noticed when i put a cable into the monitor that the port where it is feels loose. Is that suppose to be like that? I tried a few and they all did the same thing on the hdmi port and DP. If anyone has had this issue pls help LOL
    It also has update 1.07 something and the latest one for this monitor is 1.6 so it wont let me update it
    Not sure if this is flickering or not but any help would help

Not sure exactly what fixed it but after a while it just fixed it self. Maybe it just needed to warm up a bit in the morning idk....

    If anyone could help me with this, that would be amazing. I use an Onn monitor as my second display and I just suddenly started getting screen brightness flickering. This just started happening and I've been using this monitor as a second display just fine for months now, no flickering. The HDMI cable isn't the issue either, I swapped the HDMI cables I was using for my monitors and it still flickers, main display isn't flickering with the old cable. I highly doubt its a driver issue as well as this isn't effecting both of my monitors. The screen was like 70 bucks so I think it might be going out but reallyyyy don't feel like replacing it but I'm at the point of getting ready to chuck it and get a good monitor to replace it if I can't fix this. The only notable thing I've done was install Norton and do a scan. I've heard that Norton programs have a bad issue with causing this, however I've followed the steps to fix it and no dice and like I stated, it's only effecting my secondary display, not my main. Any ideas?

    here the sumarize
    tips flickering
    1.check both cable connect properly
    2.wiggle the cable from one end to one end
    3.actual software itself, which the FPS to low or to high cause the flickering
    4.video card is properly secure, there may some case GPU loose that cause the flickering
    5.inspect the monitor for the physical damage , there may be damage on the port
    6.sometime there problem with current computer which cause the flickering, so try other computer
    thx me later

    I just bought a ASUS ROG Swift PG34WCDM less than a month ago, and it's connected to my computer through a DisplayPort 1.2 cable, for the past few days it randomly started flickering black for 1-2 seconds (like if someone was turning off the lights and turning it back on really fast), I have 4 monitors connected, plus one that is plugged into my second GPU which is irreverent anyway, it’s about less than a month old since I had it, the last few days it has started flashing on and off at approximately (fairly regular) 1-second intervals, sometimes in games too as well. All drivers in Windows are up to date (display/GPU through Nvidia App, I don’t know what else to do?
