I have a pretty new pc and had this problem with my new benQ monitor, horizontal white lines going on and off my screen, sucks ass but I can't seem to fix it. I have read things on the web but couldn't find anything that would work,
What is the reason of those lines first of all?

Cheers

Yep, just need to buy a 60hz one. Should fix all your problems!

Maybe its the gpu ?

I remember I had screen tearing once, couldn’t figure it out. Turned out because I was running thru a receiver, it caused issues.

Check your HDMI cable. Make sure it’s the most up to date version. That actually was the cause of our tv blacking out every 10-120 seconds for 1 second at a time.

Check your graphics card too.

Horizontal white lines?

That's no screen tearing.

Probably a bad cable.

I once fixed my monitor that was having nearly invisible lines going upward continuously at about %30 of the screen by switching the cable. went from a vga converter thing to HDMI. I didn't know my monitor had that kinda potential at the time but the image was so crisp when I changed from vga and completely fixed the problem.

i mean for some unknown reason ive never ever been able to make the hdmi working so it always has been set to DVI since the beginning

Using the OSD (On Screen Display) on the monitor itself, there is a setting where you can choose HDMI, DVI etc.


/e If you want to use and HDMI cable, you have to make sure that HDMI is chosen on the monitor.
