AW3423DW, flickering, #5

I've had the AW3423DW now for about 3 weeks. While gaming or while on the internet, I get lots of flickering. Where my screen goes black for a split second then back on. I have tried this monitor with an AMD GPU and a NVIDIA GPU. Both have the same issue. I have changed my DisplayPort cable 3 times now all with the same result. Is this flicker normal for an OLED? I would to see if I could get a replacement monitor. It's really annoying to be playing a game and always seeing flicker and surfing the web and getting flicker. I have tried both HDR400 and HDR1000 same result. Any help would be great.

What is the refresh frequency when it flickers? Have you tried enabling Vsync to see if the flickering goes away?

Just send it back, it is a defective monitor, i had the same issue and posted about on this forum also. the only advice i got was change display port cable, try a different gpu, and or plug it in another power outlet.

They will tell you the advice above should work, which we know it does not.  if your other monitor did not flicker and this one does, save yourself some time refund it, and order a new one ( which I did ) or get a exchange and hope you get a working one without issues. you can check my posts also about it
