My current monitor is an Acer Predator 1440P, 27", G-Sync from 2017. I just noticed some weird, small artifacts that looked almost like a bar code but at different heights, not symmetrical. They were at the bottom of the screen on the Windows desktop, but when I opened a web page they weren't there. I went back to the Windows desktop and they were there again.
I restarted the PC and they are gone. Can't pinpoint it being the monitor if it wasn't there on a webpage. Same if it was a GPU issue. Degradation of the picture I use for my desktop doesn't seem likely. Any ideas?
Update: I forgot to mention this. When restarting my PC, the Republic of Gamers logo (static) has a few pieces of the logo at the top of the screen. To clarify, the entire logo is in the middle of the screen like it should be but there are additional fragments of it at the top of the screen. It's been happening for about a week.
