Hi,

 

I've a horizontal tear line that appears in the same place all the way across my screen. I notice it in gaming but also watching videos in chrome

look at the tree in this video

(having just viewed that video back i think my phone isn't helping... there is only one tear line IRL)

 

I have a lg CX set to 4k 60 hz and a RTX370 Ti

I have vsync enabled in nvidea control panel it doesn't appear to lock my refresh rate in game. I have to enable it in game to restrict my FPS, tested this out on 4 different games. But even when my fps sticks at 60hz the line is still present. New to gsync so don't know if this is expected behaviour or not.

 

Its a fairly new build, the only issue i had was the Pc not getting past boot on a cold start, an immediate restart and it would boot no problem. This seems to have resolved itself overtime though.

 

Just playing around and it only seems to be an issue at 4k 60hz, 1080p at 120hz is fine.

There’s at least one other recent post about this issue.  Possibly same monitor possibly different.  I don’t know.  I didn’t see and didn’t know any good solutions, but at least you’re not alone.

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.
