G-sync flashing/flickering when interacting with UI

Hello!

A few days ago I purchased a new monitor (Mi Curved Gaming Monitor 34") and I have stumbled upon a weird interaction with G-sync and the game interface:

If I have G-sync enabled, whenever I open an interface panel (map, bags, character sheet) I get a brief flicker/flash all over the screen. It is very faint, but enough to be noticeable. It also appears to cause a brief stutter, as I consistently lose 4-5 fps whenever it happens.

If I disable G-sync, this problem goes away. Now, obviously I don’t want to do that since I spent a lot of money on this monitor, and I am loving the way the game feels with G-sync enabled in general. It also works extremely well 80% of the time, it’s just this weird interaction with the interface in WoW that makes it rough.

I have been googling for 2 days now and have tried multiple fixes, but none of them are working. I would greatly appreciate any help to get this resolved :slight_smile:

Some of the things I have tried:

  • Using CRU to edit the Freesync range
  • Disable all addons
  • Delete the cache
  • Disable any program with a game overlay
  • Lower graphics settings
  • Reinstall drivers

I am not very tech savvy, so please let me know if there is any information I have left out!

Thank you :heart:
