Black screen flickering

Specs: b450, 5600, 6650xt, 16gb 3000Mhz.
I'm using a two monitor setup (240 (Fsync on) and 144),  and i experience occasional flickering, when both screens will blackout for less than a second.

I've noticed it happens usually when I have tabs of edge open (on one or two screens, doesnt matter). It doesnt happen while gaming. 

I've seen possible solutions like lower the Hz of the monitor/ disable hardware acceleration on chromium based browsers, but these solutions come at a price. 

Has anybody found a different solution? This problem has been really bugging me, its hard to be productive when every flicker throws you off.

*notes- this issue has persisten on every WHQL driver since i've gotten the gpu 4 months ago, and the cables/ screens arent the problem for sure.

There is no solution, it's a known driver issue for over a year at least. Keep this in mind next time you buy a GPU.
