Thank you for your report. We haven't heard of similar issues before and are unable to reproduce it.
Does this happen on any specific websites? Could you give an example.

If you disable all extensions or opening the page in an incognito window does the problem still occur?

The bug is really general to all sites from the moment you approach the mouse of a link.
After several mouse passes on the same link, the display no longer jumps.

Same problem in a private browsing window and / or disabling extensions.

The same problem is described by others and this is the case only with Chrome.

I made a video or you see the problem :

No news, but as stated in my original post, I'm not the only one to have encountered the bug.

What kind of hardware are you running on? Specifically, what's the DPI of the monitor? This should be shown in the display properties section of the control panel.

My PC is an Acer Swift 3 ref: SF314-51-57HZ.

The resolution of the screen is 1920 x 1080 pixels.

You have to correct that.

Thank you, still haven't been able to reproduce the issue I'm afraid.
Adding a few more folks that might have ideas.

Is it similar to  issue 648081 ? There are some workarounds there.
