The monitor isn't the problem as I have no issues in Win10Pro. The issue is with the way the driver side in Windows 11 with the new added graphics portions which can be found here
The monitor is absolutely the problem. It can't handle large changes in refresh rate without flickering. Disabling VRR or increasing the low end of the range defeats the purpose of having VRR in the first place.
Hi Toasty,
Further troubleshooting steps prove to be useful and finding results.
This may be helpful for those who have this same problem.
For:
Nvidia Control Panel settings.
for 'Set up G-SYNC'
1 Apply Following changes.
Enable G-SYNC, G-SYNC Compatible
Enable for full screen mode
Enable for windowed and full screen mode
2 Select the display you would like to change
Image of a Display icon w/nomenclature model
3 Display Specific settings.
Enable settings for the selected display model
!This monitor is not validated as G-SYNC Compatible.
Description:
G-SYNC, G-SYNC Compatible allows your enabled monitor to stay in sync with your games render rate, increasing smoothness and reducing latency.
Typical usage scenarios:
Most useful for games that have variable render rates below the peak refresh rates of your monitor.
The Settings Selected:
For Number 1 Option in the Menu
By setting #1 to 'Enable for full screen mode' -> the flickering ceases.
By setting #1 to 'Enable for windowed mode and full screen mode' -> flickering begins.
The problem is either the Nvidia driver or Windows side. The monitor itself is like a dummy that obeys its master. Once it is set it does what it is made for.
No apps in full screen mode should flicker regardless. Should default to the highest refresh rate and stay there in Desktop mode.
Remember that the Nvidia settings are centric to 3D modes --gaming graphics.
Windows apps along with Windows itself should retain any refresh the graphics card and monitor agree on. Handshake if that's the case in coexisting master slave.
The problem occurs on certain apps when using such as Notepad, OneNote and a few others.
I did return the V Hz to 48hz.
The drivers and windows should recognize the difference and make it so. But this is not happening on certain apps in Windows on 2D mode.
Thus either the apps themselves should be made and the need to have set in them some setting --if not already-- and the ability to run at the highest refresh rate without bobbling up and down on the scale. Windows in actuality should make this distinction and run accordingly. The apps are not 3D games.
It may also correlate to the Settings app for Windows Gaming Mode set to 'Gaming mode' while in non-gaming mode.
Maybe you could influence this problem to those who can think and act?
Perhaps you may have some influence with your rocking and rolling CRU app that is really sweet.
Also I really like your app and your candor along with continued support.
Have a wonderful week
