Please relay what graphics you are using

sudo apt install inxi && inxi -G

Or

sudo lshw -c video

Graphics:
Device-1: Intel Haswell-ULT Integrated Graphics driver: i915 v: kernel
Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.13 driver: modesetting
unloaded: fbdev,vesa tty: N/A
OpenGL: renderer: Mesa DRI Intel HD Graphics 4400 (HSW GT2)
v: 4.5 Mesa 21.2.6

Can you please try this guide: (Note that you are using i915)

To the above, you might also try Driver "modesetting".

What i should put to "Device"
Should i put my computer name or integrated graphics name?

I tried

Section "Device"
    Identifier "Intel Graphics"
    Driver "i915"
    Option "TearFree"    "true"
EndSection

but it didn't do anything

I also tried:

Section "Device"
    Identifier "Intel Graphics"
    Driver "i915"
    Option "TearFree"    "true"
    Option "AccelMod"    "uxa"
    Option "DRI"         "3"
EndSection

But that didn't work either

You answered your own question. :wink:
But it didn't work...
Can you try

Section "Device"
    Identifier "Intel Graphics"
    Driver "modesetting"
EndSection

If that does not work, remove the files you created above.
Then,

xrandr --output HDMI3 --transform 1,0,-1,0,1,-1,0,0,1
