white line on monitor?

RedxYeti

i was playing skyrim and closed the game. after i loaded it up i noticed a white line at about an inch from the top of the monitor.

 

it only shows up on light blue backgrounds but it looks as if its not going away on its own. ive restarted my computer and updated the gpu drivers.

 

i have a strix 1080

 

any ideas on wat to try next?

Gosh, I hate it when people forget. Anyway, check out my PC below, and there's a PCPartPicker link on my profile, If you wanna see what I'm planning.

There's a 3 year warranty on your panel according to Asus's Website, I would try giving them a call tomorrow to see about getting it replaced or fixed.
