Specs:
MSI G271
New DP cords
Nvidia RTX 3060 ti
I had to drop it down 120hz to not have that weird black screen flicker. Free sync is off on this monitor. I tried switching cords/ports and the problems were still the same. ALL Drivers are up to date. I tried Gsync on and off, still no difference. Never once dropped my monitor also. I used HDMI chords and the problems were not that bad but the lower screen was affected. Just with the new DP cords, it's literally affecting my whole screen. I have an LG ULTRAGEAR 24 inch and works fine.
UPDATE: 10/8/2021
At 120hz, it's starting to have the same effect on the lower screen very lightly. When I tried to go back to 144hz, it's even worse where 98% of the screen is black and 1inch from the top is flickering/static. I reset my Drivers & did not work (Win+Ctrl+Shft+B). I notice it pops up mostly on a youtube webpage/ video playing. Activating hardware acceleration on Chrome does some changes but the problem still came back. I screen recorded on OBS and it doesn't show up on playback so it's definitely the monitor in some way. At 60hz, no signs of it. Will keep updating for any solutions :(
April 30, 2022 update.......75hz starting to go out :/ looks like back to 60hz
August 2022: 60hz starting to go out..... :/
BIG UPDATE 8/17/2022:
I installed a new (actually slightly used) monitor. Its a MSI Optix G271C monitor. My old monitor as seen in the video is the MSI Optix G271. 144 HZ WOKRS. &&&& its a monitor issue.
However, I still do not trust MSI yet. Also I do have people telling me to try replace the power cable with the same or better one. It may be the fix.
IF YOU STILL HAVE A WARRANTY, please send it back to get it repaired or replaced through MSI RMA. Unfortunatly I couldn't bc I bought my old monitor through Facebppk Marketplace.
