Top of screen flickering

Hey! For the past month or so I’ve been noticing that the top like eighth of my screen flashes black and then goes back to normal really quickly a few times a minute.

I first encountered this on an arch install that was over a year old that never had this problem before. I have an Nvidia 1660ti.

I’ve since switched to fedora because I was bored recently and the issue still persists.

The flickers start when I install the proprietary Nvidia drivers and they don’t happen on windows. I am confused though because I’ve been periodically looking online and never have seen this problem mentioned.

Any help would be appreciated! Lmk if you need more info
