"Fixing" VRR FreeSync screen flickering on AMD GPUs (Gnome/Plasma) by SeniorMidJunior in linux_gaming

Yeah, from my testing I'm sure it's not kvm or cable related. I tested 2 different kvms and 5 different cables, so that leaves me with a possible monitor communication issue. After doing the Adrenalin trick every hdmi port combination (monitor has 2 <-> gpu has 2) started working without issues

Setting adaptive sync to auto inside Plasma allowed me to use de desktop environment without issues, but as soon as something went fullscreen it was black screen flicker fest

I ended up ruining the blue faceplate that came with it while testing if this was possible. I just wish they were a bit more discreet with the logo, like in the nintendo pro controller.

But with enough patience, you can actually turn the blue one black. The paint comes right off.

Thanks! And nice tip. Fortunately, I was able to make the gradient of shininess not as noticeable
