Hello, it's been roughly two weeks since the monitors began displaying these unusual glitches—artefacts? I'm unsure what to call them, but they started without warning. I considered a GPU driver update, but it didn't help. They only appear when the GPU is under light load, such as during Windows startup or occasionally while decoding videos on YouTube. During gaming sessions, there are no problems. The number of issues seems concentrated around the mouse cursor position, as shown in the linked video. My setup includes: Main monitor—Alienware AW3423DWF 3440x1440 at 165Hz; Secondary monitor—Dell P2214H 1920x1080 at 60Hz. Specs: GPU—RTX 3070 Ti from Zotac, CPU—Ryzen 5 5600X, RAM—32GB DDR4 at 3000MHz, video link provided. Sorry if this sounds like a simple problem—I'm not very familiar with hardware troubleshooting. Appreciate any advice.
