15 R3, red pixels flickering

I bought a Alienware R3 in December. I notice a while back that some red images were flickering on Behance. I though it a problem with Behance but now I realize the red on screen flickers anytime I view a red image or open a software with a red area. I am running the latest windows 10 and also updated my graphic drivers. Can anyone help or did I get a defective screen?

Hi @Rubanz,

Try with an external monitor/TV and see if the same happens or not. 

Let me know!

Hi Eimy,

 

I have a Wacom 13 hd connected and a Samsung monitor. Both screens work perfectly with no flickering when I move the images to them. Flickering only occur on the laptop screen.

Did this ever get resolved for anyone? I reported the issue when I first got my 15 R3 as it had to be returned for a motherboard replacement due to a different issue, but nothing was done to resolve the issue and I'm now out of warranty, still with a flickering red screen.
I'm fairly sure it's a physical screen issue as you can notice it in bios, and as I said above they replaced the motherboard and that didn't fix the issue.
