Hi, as I've stated in the title I have screen tearing on YouTube videos in full screen. This seems to happen on both Firefox and Chrome. I'm running Windows 10 and have an RTX 2070 graphics card that is up to date with its drivers. Interestingly though, the screen tearing only seems to happen on one of my monitors- my 4k Samsung monitor. My other monitor (a 1080P Asus) doesn't seem to have any screen tearing issues when trying the same sections of the same video.

 

Any help is greatly appreciated.

That's an interesting problem. I would start by turning on hardware acceleration in your browser or turn it off if its on.
 

If that does not change anything, the issue is most likely with either the monitor OSD settings or nvidia panel.
Or even possibly a loose cable.

If it's none of that either, i'm out of ideas.

@Nord or quote me if you want me to reply back. I don't necessarily check back or subscribe to every topic.

I've tried with both hardware acceleration on and off in firefox and that hasn't helped with the issue. I've looked around in the OSD and nvidia settings and nothing really seems to be doing anything.

Thanks for your suggestions and for trying to help, this really is baffling me
