Do you have the latest drivers installed (22.11.2) ? There was an issue like that, with two screens at different refresh rates, which should have been fixed with the latest driver release.

If that's not it, you could try to see if the issue is still there when you use one screen only. That wouldn't be the solution, but it would help to figure out whether it is an one-screen or dual-setup issue.

Also, if the AMD software did let you enable Freesync, the mentioned screen doesn't seem to support it. So, in case you have it enabled, worth checking if turning Freesync off may help (and one can use the enhanced sync option instead).

so i tried to use only one monitor and ive been using the pc for a couple of hours now and apparently the screen didnt blink again. I also tried to use the same refresh rate (60hz) and didnt blink as well. In conclusion, my choices are: use a single monitor or use both with same refresh rate even though they said that they fixed it
