Thank you so much for posting this!

Also, i'm just gonna hijack this reply in the hope that you see it. As you're the head of the site and you run everything, including all the monitor tests and the technical sites with all the technical explanations available on this site, I can't help myself to just say a big "Thank You"! Well, not only you, the entire Admin team really. Even before I started to experience some weird problems that I have now, I've frequented this site to make purchasing decisions and educate myself on various monitor tech. All the information on this site is really, really good and it has helped me in the past when buying monitors, and understanding the tech behind it. This thread obviously isn't meant for this but nontheless, a huge THANK YOU for what you do with this site and with all that you do. Deepest respect for everything. Also, thanks for having this section of the forum and allowing this to exist. Some threads in here would just be classified as "paranoid", or "conspiracy nuts" or anything along these lines on other forums. Most players who never felt these issues would chalk it up to "yeah it's you, you're bad, your computer is broken" or anything while for the people like us, it's painfully clear that this isn't actually what's happening. This forum is a fantastic place to have this discussion. Thank you so much for providing this platform and not be an "usual" admin who just doesn't like opinions that aren't your average everyday troubleshooting steps. Hats off to everybody involved in this. Thank you again for what you do.

I asked my uncle who is an electrician , and he suggested to buy a netfilter 230v ( or the voltage of your country ) , at least thats the name in dutch, not sure about the english naming. It plugs in your wall socket , to which you connect your computer. They are not very expensive.

"A mains filter is a device that you place between your socket and your audio equipment to purify and stabilize the current."

I think your problem is the power transporter in your city need to be repair is there a way for you to contact your power company.

Thanks for your suggestion. I don't exactly know what you mean, but I'll take a guess and say you mean the power transformer is the problem. Now this I think I can rule out as a problem, let me show you why:
I made a quick illustration with Paint showing where my village and the power transformer is located. Here it is:
As you can see, the village is surrounded by lots and lots of forest (the green marked areas). There is nothing around for kilometers on end. The transformer is located on the opposite side of the street. It has to be the one that supplys our village, as no other one is around. What makes me quite sure that this transformer can't be a problem is that I can simply go to another house within the same village and everything works flawlessly.

If instead you mean the power company themselves, yeah they might have something to do with it, but I've already called multiple electricians and a specilaized company, pointing them to possible problems with electricity and harmonics, and nobody found problems or any issues with the installation.

Nonetheless, thank you for the suggestion!

I would ask neighbors who has air conditioning and ask to turn it off for testing time. It might be VFD used there.

I don't know if it's a Germany thing but ACs aren't a thing here. In this village, nobody has an AC unit. I couldn't tell anybody to turn them off. Thank you anyways for the suggestion.
