Weird horizontal lines on screen

[Eburon]

Since my first play of CS2, I've noticed some weird brighter horizontal lines on my monitor. To me it is really distractive and since I noticed it, it is really annoying me to the degree I can't play it at the moment. It's most visible in darker area's or in smoke.
First I tried all kinds of different settings in game/Nvidia and monitor, but the lines are always there. So I was beginning to think there is something wrong with my monitor, but it's only in CS and at all possible refreshrates.
But today I found other people are having the same issue, so I think it has to be a software related problem with the game. Here is an example from someone on youtube, because it's very hard to capture, but it is exactly like this.
Are there people here that also noticed it, and know a possible solution? I really hope they can fix this, I know it looks like a small issue, but to me it is a game breaker.

I noticed it in CSGO as well on my crappy Sceptre monitor. It's literally the same game using the exact same hud. It's probably a 2$ fix for a billion dollar company that somehow can't seem to do it lol.

I don't see it, can you please send a screenshot in .TGA format? They're created along with usual .JPG ones when you press F12 and are located in Counter-Strike Global Offensive\csgo\screenshots\ folder

Whether or not it was a problem in CSGO is irrelevant. The fact it's present in this game is all that matters and it should be fixed. It can be a little harder to see in videos and pictures. Either way, the fact remains a lot of people have seen or noticed it and it's there.

yes, I didn't say that it's not present in CS2, it *is* present in CS2, you just said that it was also present in CSGO and I was surprised because I've never had it.

by the way, recently I bought myself a new monitor that seems to be able to display more colors at the same time, and even when I turn up the color saturation to the maximum I don't see this gradient (the line) as a "separate" thing anymore, it doesn't stand out.

I'm not saying that you and everyone else should buy a new monitor in order to get rid of it, I still think there should be at least an option to turn this gradient off, but I guess we now know why Valve created it in the first place on the UI — they're using top-tier monitors and never tried the game on worse, older ones.

I swear changing high dynamic range to quality from performance fixed this for me

[🤷]

Changing high dynamic range setting didn't fix it for me. Still seeing the line. Hope Valve can fix this bug sometime soon.

How does this still not fixed? And why did it only appear for me now?
I've been playing constantly in the past 3 years, and suddenly it appeared for me as well today.
At least we know that it's HUD related, if you are turning on-off the hud you even see the brightness difference at the bottom of the screen.
