Jump to Postto know if it is your monitor or not, plug it into another pc or plug another monitor into your pc.
it is very probable that it is the monitor or its connections
Jump to PostTry one at a time in different ports (I suppose you have two if you can plug two together). Do they both flicker? If they both flicker, try replacing your video card with a spare one or borrow one from someone to see if the problem persists.

He tried two different monitors and it does the same thing so I'm not sure. Unless both monitors have the same problem.
