Hello,

around 4 days ago my MSI Optix G271 monitor started to show a vertical line right around the center of the screen.
But its not a fixed line, its sometimes there, and sometimes isnt, and when it is, its flikering for a few seconds and then goes away again.

I'm running Windows 10 latest version, all drivers up-to-date, and the monitor is plugged into a gtx 1660ti.

Here is what i tryed with no luck:

-Using another HDMI cabel.
-Using both HDMI cabels on different ports
-Using DisplayPort
-Using a different graphics card (got a old gtx 670 to test it)
-Running the Monitor on different refresh rates (read somewhere that could help)
-Enabling/Disabling FreeSync

Like i said, nothing worked.

The line also shows up pretty inconsistent, so there is no pattern like only when gaming or only when running for to long, just whenever it feels like it.

Here a Picture of how the line looks like:

Is this a "You have to send it in for repair" problem or is there anything else i could try?
