Morning

I got my G9 OLED last week and noticed quite often when i switch on my PC and get to the desktop I get flickering as shown in the video below

I have tried a different Display port cable and the one that came with it, also updated the firmware on monitor and running latest Nvidia drivers, I thought it might be something to do with running a 2nd monitor so unplugged that but still get the issue.

I had the first G9 before this and worked 100% fine nothing else was changed. Running an RTX 3090.

Should I be returning the monitor?

      Are you using display port or hdmi? or have you tried both and is this still happening? Do you have another monitor you could try to rule out artifacting?

      Tried display port I was using with my original G9 and also tried the display port samsung included. My old G9 works 100% all ok this has only happened since the OLED arrived.

      Yeah looks like early teething problems with these monitors imo. I have the G93C which is virtually the same as yours baring the smart features. Surely samsung know about these issues? i am going to speak to their tech support either tomorrow or monday because surely we should not be having these in the first place.....not for the money they cost surely??

      I will do, think i still have 3-4 days until my return window closes....dont want to send it back cos its one hell of a monitor. I still have my trusty old 35" acer predator to fall back on but not half as good as the samsung 😞
