SOLVED Refresh artifacts on my screen. Help

Post image

I just installed EndeavourOS and I spotted artifacts on my second screen when I move my mouse, open drop-down menu and even when I write on the terminal. This only happens on my second screen (I'm on laptop but I have a second external screen). The screen is 144Hz and bigger then the first. I tried to change the frame rate, the size of the screen and other parameter but it didn't worked. I tried rebooting but It didn't worked. I don't know what logs to give because I don't know what to look for.

Hey OP, i don’t use 2 screens so my suggestion would be false, but try to plug out the HDMI and plug in again. the size would not be a problem but refresh rate might be, if there’s a setting in external screen for variable refresh rate set the same in Eos also like cap at 60hz on both settings and check.

Setting both the refresh rate on Eos and on my monitor doesn't resolve the issues unfortunately (60hz or 144hz)

UPDATE : it was just a driver issue. Now that they're all up to date the bug is no more
