Is My Monitor Shot?

[Jough]

My monitor has started doing this weird flickering, I tried switching the input to the GPU but it changes nothing. My other monitor (same make / model) does NOT experience this. I attached a link to a YouTube video I made of the issue.

Now that I'm writing this post the flickering has stopped. Is my monitor heading towards "the light" so to speak or is there something I can do to reset it?[video="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7EhGB-UbRk"][/video]

Does this only happen on your computer? Have you tried other devices that have an HDMI input?

3 monitors plugged in, two displayports, one dvi, and a Vive plugged into my HDMI slot. Everything works perfectly as expected, except that screen flash. I've plugged that monitor into all the different GPU slots, but ot continues to do that same thing.

However it hasn't happened for a few days now

Might be some sort display miscommunication within the monitor (not the devices). Something similar happened to myself, and thought that my monitor was toast. I bought a really cheap RCA to HDMI converter off of Amazon for my sega genesis, and after about 10-15 minutes of playing with the converter, my monitor would display very dimly light pale grey lines across the top left of the screen. The lines were only noticeable if you were to move your head in a sideways or up/down motion. I left my monitor rest for about an hour and the lines were gone. After that, I decided to never use that converter ever again.

So long story short, might be some miscommunication with the display and the device. If this does happen again, let the monitor rest for about an hour. If the problem persists, try to take it down to a tech shop to see if they can fix it, or buy a new monitor.
