Intermittent screen glitches based on window position and type

I have an ASUS TUF FX505DT Gaming Laptop and it recently developed a weird graphics glitch.

When I have certain windows in certain positions I get a bunch of horizontal lines near the bottom of the screen.

Sometimes those lines look like their from apps that have already been closed (so it might be pulling some stale cache data).

If I open a browser window and leave the task bar near the middle of the screen, the flicker goes away.

If I move that window so the center of the task bar gets near any edge the flicker comes back.

If I open curseforge (the initial menu screen) it doesn't matter where I put it, the screen glitch will be there.

When minecraft is first loading and in maximized mode the glitch is gone. Once it gets to the main menu, the glitch is back.

Switching it between maximized and full screen (F11) doesn't get rid of the glitch.

I don't expect an easy fix just some more test so I can narrow down what the problem is. Any ideas?

    Hello Claudius, if you really want to ensure that your graphics card isn't artifact (bricked) you can try re-seating your graphics card by opening the bottom of the laptop, there is still a chance that the laptop wasn't properly prepared for sale during production.

    I think the problem is already with the LCD(screen). I also have the same issue with my Lenovo laptop as you can see from the screenshot. The lines also keeps on appearing and disappearing.

    But to really confirm that the issue is not with the graphics card driver, you can disable it temporarily and see if the issue will be gone.

    Open Device Manager > click Display Adapter > click Disable Device.

    Let me know hot it goes.

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    Thank you. I have tried upgrading the graphics driver, rebooting, different graphics drivers etc.

    Also tried changing the resolution and that didn't fix it either.

    The attached images show the problem.

    You can see the weird scan line ghosting in the first image. It disappears when I open a browser in the second image. They come back when I move the browser window down a bit in the third image.

    Hi Claudius,

    I'm Paul and I'm here to help you with your concern.

    I will first recommend that you update the graphics card driver to the latest version.

    If you already have the latest version, uninstall and reinstall an older/different driver version from Asus or GPU manufacturer support site.

    I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and keep me posted.
