Monitor: Aorus F127 Q-P
OS; Windows 10
I got a new PC two months ago. Everything works fine, however, I have noticed sometimes that my display flashes black and white geometrical shapes, usually squares. It happens around 3-4 times a day and it lasts for like 0.5 seconds. I haven't found any pattern or cause, it would seem to happen randomly. Usually on Chrome and when I do something, like close a tab or maximize a program like Word. A couple of times it happened when my PC was turning on. There would be an "AORUS" logo, however, two times only "ORUS" or "RUS" was visible.
Shapes are never the same - sometimes only above the taskbar, sometimes upper left side of the screen, etc. Never the whole screen. Sometimes there would be like a black trapezoid on white background and smaller black squares.
Once I managed to press "Print Screen" fast enough, however, it didn't record it, so I guess it is not the graphics card?
I have Googled a bit and found that there is a bug with Chrome, or chromium in general.

Now that I think about it, I have had that problem mostly in Chrome or while using it. However, that would not explain why I had "Aorus" logo blacked out on startup?
Here are some screenshots I found on Google that looked as close as can be (note: these are NOT MY screenshots, just some random I found on the internet):
My specs are:
Intel Core i7-13700K, 16 core 3.4 (5.4) GHz
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti 12GB
Gigabyte B760 Aorus Elite AX
SSD Kingston 2TB +2TB Seagate
Kingston DDR5 32GB (2x16)
Cooler Master HAF 500
Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML360R
Seasonic g12 GM 850W
