I have been getting monitor tearing time to time, even with windows. It wasn’t occurring often, and I could fix it by turning the monitor off and on, so I have been sleeping on it.

A few days ago, it began tearing like crazy, and it happens after turning the monitor on for a few minutes. It came to the point where the computer is nearly unusable, so I want to solve the issue once and for all.

How do I go with resolving a monitor tearing issue? Or, is it the faulty monitor? The issue also happens on Windows, after all…

    This is the problem with assuming, there’s nothing in their notes about having a second monitor connected at the same time as the one that is tearing. This possibility didn’t even occur to me, but it’s plausible.

    edit: literally a minute after I reply, OP confirms you are correct in your assumption.
