Optix MAG27CQ screen flashing

[seansteinma154302da]

I have a optix mag27cq that the screen is flashing on and off. Screen starts flashing as soon as it is plugged in and not connected to desktop. I am going to guess/assume it is one of the internal boards that has gone bad but not sure which one. I have tried all the menu setting and can get it to slow flash when set to eye saving mode but it still does it. Any help with what board to swap out out or any other suggestions on how to move forward will be greatly appreciated.

i have tried changing all of this and it still flashes. I have seen some of the videos and help threads of it rippling and the screen different colors but this is more like the screen shutting off and on rapidly. It even flashes just being plugged in and not attached to the desktop.

Hey! Did you manage to fix it?

I encountered the same issue. The only solution that proved effective was switching the monitor to eye-saving mode.
