Weird font rendering / color fringing issues

Hello everyone,

Yet another font issue. After a recent reboot I have persistent issues with fonts and rendering. Using Xorg with Notion and rxvt-unicode, but problem is visible in Chrome and xterm as well. Tried adjusting every possible settings (Xresources, Xorg, using different fonts). Tried setting a custom DPI for Xorg. Using nvidia with their proprietary driver. I don't even know what else to do anymore

Color fringing / weird specks are visible here: https://imgur.com/UI0mtkT - Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!

Re: Weird font rendering / color fringing issues

I figured out the issue - It was related to the video signal from the NVidia card to my display. After manually selecting a refresh rate in nvidia-settings and reseating the cable the issue has disappeared.
