However, when using Windows normally, the G-Sync on 4070 Ti will still have a random black screen. My old 3080 never had such a problem. I tested it on Dell S2721DGF / various DP cables / multiple 4070 Ti and found that it wasn't a problem with the monitor or video card, it was just a matter of the shredt driver.

Another user, joey.salzmann, also described the details of the problem:

Hello, except for the known problem with MSFS, I have never encountered a problem before.

Use Nvidia GeForce Experience to update the driver to version 535.98 a few minutes ago. Since then, the screen has flashed like hell every time I move the cursor.

I checked the cable and tested it on two different top-level monitors. The first time I used the official program to uninstall, I stopped flashing after restarting the computer, but started flashing again when I reinstalled the driver and restarted the computer.

There must be something wrong with this update. Considering that I don't need Bug repair and Diablo 4 for the time being, I will temporarily revert to the previous driver. Platform:

-Intel i9-12900KF

-MSI Suprim RTX 4080

-Windows 11 Professional Edition

-4k and 2k game monitors with G-Sync
