While playing games like League of Legends, broken arrow, squad, and watching a YouTube video, my screen briefly goes black before turning back on. I've verified the refresh rate matches my monitor settings and checked both fullscreen and windowed game modes. Splitting tabs also causes the same problem. Anyone experienced with this issue? Do you have any suggestions or solutions? Your help would be really appreciated.

It looks like an overlay or recording is active, possibly due to the process in use.

It seems your GPU is restarting to create a new display format. You can't change this, so just relax—this is similar to how your eyes adjust when focusing on something far away.

Noted that Windows Recall might be affecting other systems. Verify it isn't running on your machine. Best of luck!

I've adjusted the settings so both Windows and the game run at identical resolutions. This prevents the issue you mentioned, which is quite bothersome. If the game is set to 1920x1080 but your screen is at 2560 x 1440, it will definitely cause this problem. Switching to 2560 x 1440 instead will make everything smooth without any interruptions.
