Hello, I have been having a very annoying flicker on the bottom 25% of one of my Asus PB278 monitors. I recently upgraded from a GTX1080 where I never had this issue. I've had these monitors since 2012 with no issues till now. I have two of the same model monitors side by side and it only happens to one of them. You can see 1 frame flickers in the video @ the timestamps on the right monitor only.

This issue however does not happen when I use HDMI with the problem monitor, everything is okay with HDMI.
So far I have tried the following:
- Swapped around 5 different DP cables 1.2 and 1.4
- Tried all 3 DP ports on back of GPU
- DDU'd drivers 3 times
- Toggled G-SYNC on/off
 
Even after trying all the above, I have the same issue on the same monitor at the same spot. I am unsure of what to do at this point.

     Do you still not have the old 1080 to test?

    I do have the 1080, but I literally installed the 3090 few hrs ago, was on 1080 before that and it was working perfectly.

    I would install the 1080 again just to be 100% certain, doesn't take long.  If it fine, then you have bad DP ports on GPU.  Try different DP port on back of monitor if it has more than 1 port and test only 1 monitor hooked up at a time

    I have only 1 DP port on back of monitor, but I have connected it to all 3 DP ports on back of GPU, same issue across all 3 DP ports.

    I am having the exact same problem,  I have a 3090 FTW3 Ultra, I'm using an ASUS crosshair VIII, my monitor is a Samsung odyssey g9.  I see the flicker when I'm running 120 Hz with Gsync on (my other machines do not have this issue).  When I run at 240Hz I do not see the issue.

    I've avoided the issue by running at 240hz and turning Gsync off for now.

    As I mentioned, I've tried toggling gsync on/off which did nothing, also this is a 60hz monitor only.
