My graphics in games has started to flicker. Link to video below.

The problem came from one day to another. Doesn't matter which game I try it's the same problem.
If disable the GTX1060 the graphics are ok so the problem seems to be that card.

I've tried several different drivers and did a full factory reset but nothing has helped so far.
Any tip how to fix it or is the GTX1060 broken?

    Flickers both on battery and while charging. Tested the vga drivers on the acer website too but the flickering remains.

    Can you try getting the FPS? It looks more like a screen refresh issue. Try turning on vsync and see if the issue persists.

    RIP I think your GPU is broken or turn or V-sync. You need a technical support.

    Tried vsync on and off. No difference.
    Today it worked for about 1min after startup but then it started to flicker again. 
    Can it be heatrelated?
    Temps looks good tho. 
    Gpu at 46-50c while idling ingame.
