Hi all, maybe you can help me as I'm having issues with screen flickering during game, sometimes it is related with fps drops but most of the time it is when fps are solid (screen flicker is similar to old crt monitor when refresh rate was set to small value). This happens only in this game I have never experienced it before. I played quite a lot civilisation so picture was static as well and never experienced this type of behaviour.
Game was tested on two separate computers. My PC:
i7-9700k OC to 5Ghz with z390 pro aorus
rtx 2080 super evga (stock)
32 GB RAM (stock 3200)
1440p display Acer predator 165Hz (when flickering happens monitor refresh rate stays at normal rate)
Game installed on nvme
second PC
i5-9600K (stock) same mobo
32 GM RAM 3200 (stock)
rtx 2080 super KO evga
1440p display LG 144Hz (when flickering happens monitor refresh rate stays at normal rate)
Game installed on nvme
Had no problem with any of the temperature in system, CPU is sitting at max 50C, (coolant termperature with norm) GPU ~70 (40C with installed g12 kraken with AIO). Tried with g-sync off, on, vsynch on off, swapped monitor with 1080 and I have not experienced it so much but still was present. Reinstalled graphic card driver and tried some older versions no improvement at all. Can any one please help as game is pretty unplayable for me as after couple hours I have headache.
I am new player as bought this game few days ago on steam sale and I LOVE it.
Don't know if anyone will read this but there is another strange thing going on, according to lasso process it Stellaris is using 8.4% of my CPU even if I will assign only one core it will go to 12% and fps dropped to 80.
