Screen flickers in games

M

MyPCRunsMe

This only happens in games, but it happens in ALL games.
When I'm playing games I can see the screen refresh. a near-transparent stripe stripe moves vertically up my screen at a very rapid speed every half second or so. This does not happen when I'm watching movies or when I'm on the desktop.

Vsync doesn't help, as I'm running games under 60 FPS.

I have a BenQ G2420HD set to 60Hz, my refresh rate in games are also manually set to 60 herts.

Graphics card: ASUS GTX 570 Direct CU II with the latest drivers

CPU: i5- 2500K overclocked to 4.0GHz on stock voltages, 62C under load. Stress tested with Prime95 Blend for 4 hours, no errors.
Driver version 280.26

Power Supply: Corsiar TX650
RAM: G.SKILLS Ripjaw X 1600Mhz (stock freq.)
Motheboard: ASUS P8P67
is this a driver problem or a monitor problem? can I fix them without replacing components?

All replies are appreciated.
 
please tell me what is your system spec like cpu , power supply, and nvidia driver version.
did you overclocking your cpu or it is running at stock speed ?
