Rog Swift 27 - Bad Flickering at 144Hz, none at any lower refresh rate, is it broken?

Hello guys,

I bought the monitor in the subject a month ago, It has been flawless at its native res 1440p and 144hz refresh rate. Few days ago I noticed a strange issue. The monitor got some sort of refresh problem causing flickering (not even during gaming though only in Windows) and flashing.

Anything below 144hz works OK (except for 60) but unless I enable the UMLB the result is not the best.

does anybody know anything about this problem? should I ask for an RMA?

Thanks in advance,
Johnny

What is your PC specs?
I could not return it in my country, so I contacted ASUS service and they answered that they will look into this problem. You can write them at the support section of asus.com.
Still having to endure all that bluring and flickering,
