Hello, back in 2021 I made a post because my laptop at the time had gotten small black border around the screen while i was modding skyrim and it was driving me wild. I was a stupid kid with an unknown model laptop and the black border was tiny so i basically could not provide any info about specs or hardware and had to get a new laptop.
Now in 2025, i've built my own computer (so i have all the spec knowledge) but the exact same problem has returned. Coincidentally while modding skyrim my screen has again gotten these black borders. Now my screen has already gone into standby by itself several times while using the pc recently (twice yesterday) for no reason beforehand so i don't think its necessarily skyrims fault but i'd like to know if its a software or hardware issue before returning the screen. This also started after updating windows but again i already had problems (I know the borders changed because it did NOT have a black stripe in the bottom before. It filled the screen completely! And i infact watched the borders grow pixel by pixel in width). I have tried a range of things mentioned by google including filling screen, themes in personalization, checking screen settings.
i have an Lenovo G27qc-30 27" curved and nvidia geforce rtx 4080 super version 560.70
Heres some pictures

If anyone could please help me i would be greatful. My online classes start today
