So can those artifacts actually be removed? I get that Demonic uses it for extra effect, but I'm wondering how much extra work you need to do to make that footage actually look good and clean.

My GF has an MSI B450-A Pro MAX mainboard and it worked fine until today. Her PC wouldn't post with monitor displaying "no signal" and mobo lighting up the VGA debug LED. This seemed like a pretty straightforward issue, until she tried taking out the dGPU(RX 570) and connecting display into the onboard display outputs that hook into the iGPU in her 3200G. The system still reported no signal and VGA LED remained lit up. She tried connecting it to a different monitor with a different cable, but the issue remained. Usual troubleshooting like taking out CMOS battery didn't help. I've seen some people say that AMD APUs might report as "no VGA" on the motherboard if the CPU itself is dead, does anyone know if that's true? She sadly doesn't have any spare GPUs/CPUs to easily troubleshoot the issue and I live too far away to swap components from my system.

Oh, I see, I'll have to check around, then. Thanks for advice.

Wouldn't a worn bearing be causing this noise every time the fan is spinning? I've never heard it outside of PC booting.

For a few days now, my PC has some sort mechanical, grating noise coming from it on startup. Soundcloud link with a recording for reference What's weird to me is that this sound only ever happens when I boot my PC up. It lasts for a minute or two and then it's gone and I never hear it while my PC is already working. Any ideas what it might be or some ways to diagnose it further?
