now my quick fix is just not using vsync. maybe i should go all out and reset my pc as i didnt reset or format my pc when i got this new gpu. i just used amd ddu
This doesn't seem to be related to Sodium since I can get vanilla to flicker, too. It's not really possible for Sodium to cause something like this by itself, anyways. The flicker can most likely be attributed to GPU drivers and the way they present OpenGL windows.
If anyone figures out why it's happening though, feel free to let us know. We have seen people report it on both AMD and NVIDIA GPUs, so it's something shared between drivers, or a bug in Windows itself.
