I've seen this on my work monitors (Dell UltraSharp 2408WFPb) - it is the input circuit board on the back of the monitor. It may be a capacitor issue, or tin whiskers - the fix for that is reflowing the solder joints. You wont know for certain until you crack the monitor open - an oozing capacitor will let you know if it is a capacitor issue.
You may have to go big and try reflowing the board in an oven, but it isnt a guaranteed fix. Dont stick the whole monitor in the oven, just the circuit board.
