Green screen when opening/closing videos

Hi there.

 

I've had this issue ever since upgrading my GTX 1050 TI --> 1660 Super. Not a big deal -- videos still play fine -- but I do sometimes see a green screen for a moment when I open/close videos.

 

This is fixed by turning off hardware acceleration in Chrome.

 

But I was wondering why this happens. Is there something wrong with my GPU?

You may wanna try reinstalling chrome. But first are you on the most recent driver?

Yes. And I had the same issue before clean installing Windows.

Then it might be another piece of software interfering. But that's going to be rather hard to diagnose. You got any plugins in chrome installed?

No plugins. I have seen a similar issue before when new cards come out. Just hopeful that it's not a hardware issue.

If it would be a hardware problem it might be because of a 2000 series being in a b350 board that got it's bios updated but to a version of the bios that had an issue.
