External EIZO monitor flickers

Hi, I have a new Mac mini M1. While connected to my EIZO FS2434 the display starts to flicker, especially at the edges. I never had this problem with my EIZO before and heard about the problem with the new apple M1/M2 series chip. I checked all HDMI ports and tried to fix the problem in the display settings but with no results. What else can I do? Thanks for all suggestions.

external monitor flickering Yes - this issue has been discussed alot. I have tried all the suggested solutions - changing colorprofile, changing refresh rate, changing cable. The problem occurs both for thunderbolt-thunderbolt and thunderbolt-displayport. The only "work around" is using hdmi, which is a major downgrade considering the cost of these mac computers. I have this flickering problem both on a Studio Ultra m1, and on a macbook pro m1. I am using a Benq PD3220 external screen, but I read that the issue is also related to many other brands. I am using my macs for work, and this flickering is a real problem now. Can anyone recommend a screen where this flickering is NOT happening (more than 1 year flicker-free) ? Did anyone with a mac monitor experince this problem ? Can it be fixed by sending the computer to repair at apple - did anyone get it fixed by repair ?

External monitor flickering with new MacbookPro M4 Hi there, I just got my new macbook pro m4 and connected it to my 2 external monitors. After a while, the screens start to flicker and you can see horizontal and vertical stripes (more visible in the corners of the display). This has never happened with my old macbook pro (2020, 13'', Intel Iris Plus Graphics). The macbook is connected with an adapter (usb-c to 2x display port) to the 2 external monitors (EIZO, EV2335W). The flickering starts about half hour after I plug in the adapter, while the first half hour works just fine. It seems that this also appears when I open "dark" windows or dark elements on the screen. The flickering and the stripes stay on the screen even if I unplug the macbook and e.g. connect my old laptop. It takes about 1 or 2 hours until the screen turns to "normal". Anyone has an idea of what that could be and how I can solve this issue? (I really don't want to change the 2 monitors after buying a new macbook!) I, of course, tried several settings (like changing color profile, frequency, refresh rate, etc.) but nothing helped. Thanks for your help!

Flickering external monitor Hi I am using a Samsung curved monitor as an external display with my macbook Air. It keeps flickering in and out so I can't use it. I have tried a new HDMI cable but it still flickers. Any ideas?
