    the ET1602 Graphics Driver update went in last night :/ ive tried swapping DisplayPort and HDMI and moving the monitors to different outputs. the pirmary screen stays perfect. can a driver really do this to just one screen? 😂 the flicker is subtle enough that i sometimes doubt myself, then it happens three times in a row and i wanna throw the monitor across the room. any ideas on what to test first?

  4. if none of that helps, roll back to teh previous driver to confirm... if the flicker disappears, report it with your exact setup to the ASUS feedback channel and stay on the older driver for now.

  6. oof if the windows jump to the main screen, the monitor is actually disconnecting, thats link training, which can be cable quality, DisplayPort sleep or teh dock. try a certified cable and disable teh monitors own deep sleep/auto input switching.
