My monitor is Alienware AW2723DF 1440P

Hi. I plugged this pc and formatted disk in uefi.

13900K stock

2x16 GB DDR5 GSKILL 6800

Rtx 4090 Gigabyte Gaming

Aorus Elite Z790 AX

SSD KINGSTON 2TB

Seasonic 1300W PX ATX 3.0 PCIE 5.

I have a G-Sync compatible monitor, and if G-Sync is enabled my monitor will go black for about a second if I open a store page in STEAM and scroll the video out of view. It will then go black again if I scroll it into view. The video plays fine and otherwise Steam itself works normally, but if the video enters or exits the visible area of the screen the display loses sync for a short while 1 second. It doesn't do it if G-Sync is off. No other application on my system causes this.

Look at this:
