Screen flickering on windows 11 laptop when variable refresh rate is enabled AN515-57 Nitro 5

Hello everyone! I need your help. My laptop screen flickers slightly in some games if I have variable refresh rate enabled. I have windows 11. I think it has something to do with the intel integrated graphics drivers. I have a driver intel corporation display 30.0.101.1273. Any advice why variable refresh rate causes screen flicker? I had to disable this feature and now my fps is limited to the hertz of the monitor. I have a rtx 3050 ti also. I think it's a problem with the intel driver. I have all windows updates and bios updates installed. This is somehow connected with the wrong hertz of the monitor when you turn on the variable refresh rate of the screen.

Update the Intel graphics drivers to their last versions, the latest Iris Xe graphics driver is the version 31.0.101.3802 14/11/2022 as the version 30.0.101.1273 is too old, the best is for you to install the Intel® Driver & Support Assistant and do a scan and update all the Intel drivers to their latest versions, also install the last NVIDIA RTX-3050 driver version 527.37 WHQL and make sure that you use the new software's "Clean Install" option so that the old driver is deleted, as all this will fix your flickering issues.
