Is it normal for a ASUS ROG SWIFT PG279Q 27" monitor to flicker when you first turn it on ?

It does it during BIOS bootup once it is in Windows it is ok.

Display Port cable. Why ?

It is amazing that just because I bought the monitor it is going in back order or out of stock everywhere. Glad I didn't say anything about it until I bought it!

may i ask how you like the monitor? i'm debating picking up one of these to replace my dell S2417dg monitor.

Just found this fix and it worked. Weird.

Your welcome.

I don't like the fix though.

Prefer MBR still instead of GPT.

Mainly because I can create one partition of the OS and Applications on my SSD instead of having 3 for it. With 2 being little small partitions for recovery and boot up I think.
