Odd graphical outlines/bug on 32:9 monitor

There seems to be some strange bug going on with the outlines of the area appearing on the left side of my monitor

I'm running the latest version of my GPU drivers and checked for updates and repaired my game install just in case something went wrong but it's not helped the issue.

Attached is a screenshot of the graphical bug: 

ME: Legendary Edition graphical glitch

I'm also attaching a video of the bug where it's a lot more visible: https://gfycat.com/poshmammothkob

My specs in case necessary:

CPU: Ryzen 3900x

Mobo: ASUS ROG Strix x570-E Gaming

GPU: ASUS ROG Strix RTX 3080 OC

RAM: 16 GB G.Skill Triden 3600 MHz

Monitor: Samsung Odyssey G9

Is there anything I can do to fix this on my end? Any help is appreciated!

  • Same issue here. Example: https://i.imgur.com/9Qze9AZ.jpg

    It seems to be rerendering the part of the right side out of the 16:9 area.

    I'm also using the latest drivers on everything.

    Specs:

    CPU: Ryzen 3700x

    Mobo: Gigabyte X570 Aorus PRO

    GPU: RTX 3090 FE

    RAM: 32 GB Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 3200MHz

    Monitor: Samsung C49RG90

  • I feared it might be an engine restriction. The artifacts seem to start at the 21:9 border.

    However, it seems to be semi supported; I can choose a 32:9 resolution, but it does say it's 16:9: https://i.imgur.com/CpkWocK.jpg

    So, I was hoping there might at least be a workaround or something.

    I'm having the same issue at 32:9 aspect ratio. Which is unfortunate, as everything else works and looks just fine at 32:9.

    Thus far I have not been able to find a workaround.

    Disabling anti-aliasing gets rid of the artifacts 🙂

    Sadly no, it's the same in Mass Effect 2: https://i.imgur.com/0q6PWXo.jpg 

    And 3: https://i.imgur.com/592vB1J.jpg 

    and in 2 I noticed another strange issue with the game where the subtitles are positioned in the center of the screen and too large to fit into the width of the game: https://i.imgur.com/JdyK66n.jpg 

    Strangely enough this part seems to stretch to almost the entire width of the monitor: https://i.imgur.com/xqPWyiY.png 

    Definitely possible it's an engine restriction, though I've tried several other (non-recent games) in 32:9 without this kind of issue. But it might be unique behaviour in this particular game engine

    Can confirm, this actually got rid of them for me. So much time spent checking all 3 games for the issue and I didn't even think to disable graphical settings. Thanks Chester!

    Yeah, that was the ticket. Literally the one graphical option I didn't toggle, of course. 😠

    Thanks, Chester!
