Acer Nitro VG240YS monitor flickers (thick horizontal bars and white pixels flickering) and makes some popping sound.
The pop sound happens only when horizontal flickering happens. I am not sure wether the sound is coming from monitor in built
speakers or from the back of the monitor. This monitor arrived from amazon on 31 August and the monitor
is not event two weeks old. The problem happened on 11 September and now its gone by itself. I don't know what do do.

    Edit : I also recorded the screen (I was playing valorant) using NVIDIA SHADOWPLAY but the recording doesn't have any flickering.

    Is it still happening or resolved by itself?

    Are you using DP cable or hdmi cable for display

    You either want to swap that unit out with your vendor (fastest) or contact Acer support to get it in for a repair (slower). It sounds like a power glitch internally.

    I've been using the Acer Nitro VG240YS for a while now, and I haven't experienced any flickering or popping sounds. It's strange how these issues seem to be inconsistent across users. If the rodent control method works for some of you, please let us know. I'm curious if it might be a factor in these monitor troubles.
