From India here.
So i recently purchased the Almighty X27 but i have been facing flickering issue. It was less frequent to begin with but now it has increased! During gameplay screen goes off&on , sometimes 2-3 times in a row. I doubt its bcoz of refresh rate. I keep 98 Hz bcoz i read that this monitor doesn't supports full 10-bit hdr above 98 Hz. Although i tried 120 Hz too but same issue. Contacted Acer support, they sent a 3rd party technician who was an even bigger noob than i am! Didnt even know there is such a thing called DisplayPort! He concluded that it has to be taken to service center for investigation to which i am yet to reply but honestly dont want to do it. I feel its a small issue,something resolvable without entering the vicious circle of service centers. I was using supplied Ji-Haw 8k cable, the i switched to amazonbasics (for more length) , flickering happened in both. I have latest geforce & windows 10 drivers. Acer doesnt have any drivers for this monitor,yet.
If any1 can provide an insight i will b thankful.
