Microsoft Edge freezes in parts of display

I noticed that Microsoft Edge freezes in some parts of the screen before going back to normal. I can still use the browser, but some parts of the screen freeze before resynchronizing with the rest of the display. Some effective solutions are right-clicking on affected areas, screenshotting, and moving the window around. I believe that it is isolated on my desktop since reinstalling windows does not fix the issue. Please investigate further, thank you

    I believe this issue is hardware-related, as the same issue occurs in discord. I reseated the ram, and I am waiting to reproduce the issue

    This has been happening to me for a while too, i am on a 14700kf with a 4080 and 32gb ram, very few addons, but maybe it is ublock origin or something?

    So, wanted to chime in here.

    I very much doubt that this is a hardware related issue because multiple people with different kinds of hardware are experiencing the same issue. Plus, bringing up what Justin said, it's affecting me. I have ublock origin as well. It should not be affecting discord because it's a Microsoft edge plugin (Specifically chromium but you get the point.)

    I do believe this is an issue relating to what Windows has pushed out in recent updates. Is there some way to downgrade windows to a different version? One that hasn't had this issue? As I haven't been able to keep logs of what versions of windows has been used.

    For context, my system's running an AMD Ryzen 5 5600X on a Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite Wifi motherboard, 32 GB of RAM, and with an AMD Radeon RX 7800XT. I avoided the latest windows updates for quite a while, but only last week managed to install it cause I had to reset my windows PC due to Final Fantasy XIV having multiple unexplainable freezes. I still feel like I need to run a test on that game to see if the issues were solved or something, but past that...well, yeah. This seems like a fun predicament.

    I agree. i have a 5900x, 6800xt, asus b550i mobo, 64 gigs ram, also have ublock origins noticed this a few days after updating windows a few weeks ago. i switched over to mozilla for the last week or so and have yet to see the issue emerge. could be related to amd hardware and only appears on amd cpu or gpu, but the issue is software as this only appeared after the update. Edit saw someone above with a 4080 and intel cpu... so this prolly all falling 100% on microsoft.
