amd freesync screen(brightness) flicker (kernel 5.12.3)
Brief summary of the problem:
I am noticing screen brightness flickering when gaming.
I just tested it with WoW and in the gnome starting area, standing still, I am locked at 100 fps. But when I turn on the monitor's refresh rate counter I see it going from 70 to 144 and anything in-between, which is weird since it should be stable at 100 since that is also the game's fps.
See attached screenshot for that I mean. The games FPS is in the middle bottom and the refresh rate of the monitor top-right in red.
