I think its a common problem. I had a similar issue when screen would flicker with dark backgrounds.
its a easy fix this is what i did and it worked fine after.
Open the nvidia control panel, then adjust desktop size and position and hit full screen
Then go to change resolution -> Customize -> Create Custom resolution -> Type 67 in refresh rate
and select it on the list after, then right click desktop > Screen Resolution > Advanced Settings > Monitor Tab > Screen Refresh Rate > put in 67hz
try that and see if it works.

It shouldn't, because the refresh rate that nVidia sets is what is reported to Windows! The card still runs at a 60 Hz internal time-base for the update. It simply fakes a higher frequency for parity with faking out certain impossible resolutions. It is helpful for testing, but nothing more.
Definitely flickers! 😞 It is because of the white+grey striping. It has to do with frequencies interfering. Let me explain:
1) Everything that oscillates has an effective frequency. In this case, the frequency is the rate at which the white bands change to grey on a particular row of pixels.
2) Screens have a frequency at which they update...in this case 60 Hz
3) Frequencies can interfere...sometimes with disastrous results.
4) When the frequency of oscillation of the color of a row of pixels approximately matches (+/- 5 Hz) that of the screen update rate, then the pattern of updating the pixels will cause what looks to be flickering.
5) The shorter the height of the bands (fewer rows of pixels), the higher the frequency of oscillation for a given scrolling speed. Thus, it is easy to hit ~60 Hz when spinning the mouse wheel.
Hope this helps! Nothing is wrong with your computer...something is wrong with the website design. :cool:

Wow!! What an educated explanation! Thanks bro!
I am glad it isn't my screen that was broke at least you confirmed that!
Cheers man! Its only that site that has this problem anyway so it's not a big deal 🙂
