Screen tearing and microstutters @ 240Hz

a_c_r_e_a_l

Hello, since several weeks I experience some weird tearing and microstutters which I assume are caused by my GPU (Asus ROG Strix RTX 2060). Couple of months ago everything was fine and every game was smooth and sharp @ 240Hz. Actually this is not just about games, but also desktop: https://streamable.com/j2kxa6 You can clearly see that mouse movement is not constant and laggy and doesn't matter how much I am trying to move it smoothly.

 

Here are some examples in game:

 

Far Cry 5

I don't have 240Hz feeling anymore. I was trying to fix it by:

- separating cables from each other,
- reinserting GPU,
- DyAc on/off, Instant mode on/off, AMA on/off
- Fast sync (no any effect however I saw that for some people it's working flawelessly),
- Capping to 239.749 fps with RTSS, it slightly improves smoothness but this is not the way to fix it,
- Ram OC, reducing timings and clocks,
- Capping CPU @ 3.6 GHz,
- Changing power plans,
- Connecting DP cable to different plugs,
- Checked current in outlets (no noises, ground impedance 5 Ohm, stable 230V and 50Hz)
- Reinstalling nVidia drivers with DDU,
- OS format,
- Tried 182Hz tweak (I don't have feeling that it improves anything),
- Updating sound drivers,

 

My rig:
Monitor: Benq XL2546
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X No OC
MOBO: MSI B450 Tomahawk
GPU: Asus ROG Strix RTX2060 Gaming OC 6GB
RAM: HyperX Predator 16GB 3333 MHz CL16
PSU: SeaSonic Focus 550W Gold Plus
Mouse: G502 @ 1000Hz

 

Have any of you experienced anything similar and managed to fix it? FYI it's not related to FPS.

scan for malware, malwarebytes

 

any weird shit or normal shit running in the background hogging the cpu?

 

run latencymon  - check for crap causing delays

 

start with that

DPC Latency was continuously jumping between ~30 and ~190 us on idle.

 

No malwares. I am about 3 weeks after format and I don't have software that could interrupt CPU performance (or at least I don't see anything suspicious)
