Every so often I get a split second horizontal flickering across the center of my screen (happens during gaming sometimes too!) and this worries me as if it is a sign of my monitor showing signs of the beginning of the end. I highly doubt it's my video card as I am having no issues for the past 3 years and I also don't run things at maximum as well.
There is no fuzzy text/images, there are no issues with it powering on and there are no odd coloration or patterns but there is the flickering mentioned. I do believe I've had this monitor for a good 4-5 years so far and it's a 20 inch LCD widescreen Acer.
I'd like some second opinions before I go and make a purchase to replace this monitor.
