Weird tearing issue

So I have a dell s2417dg and as of recent any movement across the middle of the screen causes what looks like tearing.

The only thing I could think of was rolling back my gpu drivers.

 

update: problem was the connection but should I worry about the gpu being too heavy?

First of all check if the connection between the GPU and the monitor is well done. Then try to check if the GPU is placed properly in the PCI slot. If the issue still appears after a little hardware check then it might be a software related issue.

When I say weird tearing I mean it looks like this very faint flicker that appears in the middle of the screen as a line

Hmmm so I went into pubg because I recalled the affect being more pronounced but it seems to have gone away in pubg only? I will try again to adjust the connection and ill see if it worsens or gets better
