My monitor flickers red, green and blue when watching videos and playing games.

I've tried swapping HDMI cables and resetting my monitor settings. My monitor is a BenQ gw2270 monitor.

I've had the monitor for a little over a year and it has just recently started doing this issue. I'm also using an RX460 2GB graphics card.

Are there any other games that do that?
Im quite sure that is how the game goes.

 

[recallx_goldz]

all my games and videos do it

Only at start of video or?
If its on start of game or video then probably an driver issue.
Download latest chipset and drivers for your motherboard, install them and test out again.
If it still happens ill suggest you one more possible option.

all my drivers are up to date and the issue still persists. could it be a monitor related issue

Right click on desktop then screen resolution, then to advanced settings, go to monitor tab, now does it say Generic PnP monitor or?
And under that it should saying "Screen refresh rate" make sure its on 60Hz.

I would suggest you to reinstall drivers for your GPU.
Download DDU and your drivers for your GPU , dont download automatic, download by selecting your GPU model, and windows (Which you have).

For safe mode windows 10 use "Shift+restart" method->https://www.digitalcitizen.life/4-ways-boot-safe-mode-windows-10
Windows 7 force restart your PC and go to safe mode.

After unpacking DDU and running it as administrator, do clean+restart (If you had previously Nvidia GPU, do again safe mode and do it for nvidia).

After DDU has done it and your PC restarted now install latest drivers.


Just to ask, how do you know that your drivers are up to date?
