Intermittent flicker after updating NVidia drivers

[Vertigo]

Since updating my drivers to the latest ones from last week, I've now developed an issue with a brief intermittent flicker near the top of the screen on my main monitor.

It's just every now and then and just a very brief one but it wasn't there previously.

No hardware or connections have changed so this isn't cables or anything obvious. It literally started after updating the driver.

Anyone else had similar?

I've had this with certain monitors and drivers before.

Just roll back the driver.

There is no need to update drivers unless you play the absolute latest newly released games and wanted the profile updated for them.

I'll update when bf2042 comes out as I'll be playing that and will need latest driver but after that I'll leave it for a while

Funnily enough I've had some weird intermittent flickering since the last driver update with my 3080ti, a restart seemed to stop it.

Roll it back skip this update.

I was actually on a very old driver from like 6+ months ago so wouldn't know what version it even was.

Might roll back one version at a time and see if it stops.
