Text disappears or distorted while typing on Outlook (Office 365)

Hello, I was the individual who posted the original question. The final resolve for me was to remove the drivers that were provided via either Geforce web site (when I had an Nvidia card installed), and from AMD's site when i tried installing one of their cards to resolve the issue. I let windows install the default stable version(s) that is installed through Windows Update, No more issues. I am not a gamer, so I don't need all of the tweaks that come with the latest versions of the drivers.

Protecting them with excuses won't do anything to encourage them to fix the problem. They should not be shielded for their lackluster product support. Microsoft Office is the only product that has this problem and it's only newer versions of Microsoft Office so obviously they're not doing something correct and they started doing something differently than they used to. They removed the ability to disable hardware acceleration in the Office suite, which may have yielded a simple fix, so there is that example. Less desirable competing products from openoffice.org, Corel and LiberOffice do not have this issue, and we would not have this issue if they cared enough to fix it. It is unfortunate we have to find workarounds because of their incompetence. If it were a common problem affecting other software products it might be appropriate to not blame them for it, but it stands alone as the only one.

+1 for turning on Low Latency Mode (4070ti Super)

Interesting enough I was running the iGPU on the 14700k for about 2 weeks as this was a new build and was waiting on the Nvidia to come out/ship. Did not have the issue until I popped in the dedicated card.

I did notice a lot of forums made it seem like the defaults were to be set to "on", though the Nvidia dashboard has the default to "off". Maybe it's AMD who set's the default to on for their version.

An observation I had after turning on the mode, the CPU likes to keep at least one core in boost ~5.4Ghz, whereas before it would rest way down ~1.3Ghz at times. Utilization appears to be the same and temps haven't gone up. Then again, I have an oversized cooler on it and don't overclock so my system may not be a good gauge on any temp increases.

Hi all

I just managed to fix this with the latency mode setting in the Nvidia control panal. I have also noticed that it is very bad when running at 144Hz but less at 120Hz refresh rate before the Nvidia control panal fix thing. could it be something to do with heigher refrese rates?

I am having this issue too in all MS Office programs when I am typing text (on a laptop). I look in the Nvidia control panel Manage 3D settings for outlook.exe and it says that Integrated graphics are selected so I assume I can't do anything to in there. I am mainly see the effects when I am typing on my attached monitor (via HDMI) so will that still be on integrated graphics?
