Greetings, i have a little problem with my GTX 1050TI. so, i'm getting "artifacts" (?) tell me what i have to do, i tried to ask on many forums, no one replied. i hope i will get your help so, here its how it looks like (problem) card is new, so i think its drivers, problems but idk. so please help https://youtu.be/tcLxRuBuBUY

Yo o/ So I've had this combo for a while: Mobo: Asus Maximus VIII Gene. CPU: i7 6700k @ 4GHz. RAM: 16GB of HyperX DDR4 Memory. PSU: 550W Corsair something something - fully modular. GPU: GTX Geforce 980 TLDR; So recently I started having some troubles with my PC. Firstly I started getting some weird bluescreens and after a LOT of trial and error with reinstalling windows and the like, I first thought that it was RAM related, then SSD but turns out that manually setting the CPU voltage to 1.4v fixed the blue-screens. For a while I had no issues again, up until the machine started with some odd freezes, just for a few seconds to then continue. Also really bad performance on 3d accelerated programs. Just opening something like spotify, discord or google chrome would TANK performance of any other 3d application and the pc as a whole. This I fixed with using DDU and reinstalling drivers completely. For about a week It was going fine until I decided to reinstall windows 10, again. For the usual reasons, space, all sorts of crap on the boot drive, so on... But, since the reinstall I've encountered problems again. As an example, every time I start my PC there's ALWAYS a freeze of about 2-3 seconds. Just after windows boots onto the desktop. I've done the same with reinstalling drivers and the like... Doesn't seem to have fixed that particular issue. Then the other night my PC just crashed with graphical artifacts on the screen: This particular picture is just me watching some stuff in VLC. This happened in game too. It hickups with these artifacts and freezes for about 3-5 seconds. Then the sound continues and seemingly windows, but the screen / graphics never recovers and a hard reset is required. So this happened a few times last night too. Monitoring temperatures debunks that as an issue, steady 50-70c depending on the application. Today, I can't even boot into windows, it happens instantly on startup. Temperatures that I've been able to gather while I could still run the PC with a game, are normal according to readouts on speedfan. However idle temperatures are in BIOS is 38c in a watercooling loop that holds both the CPU and GPU. In a relatively cool room, I'd imagine somewhere around 20c. Is my GPU fried? Is it a PSU issue considering the CPU troubles? Maybe it's even the motherboard? I've run RAM tests with no errors (6 hours). Is it some oddball temperature fault, is my system really overheating but sensors are not able to read it? I'm at a complete loss, and going out to get a new GPU right now with how prices are atm. would be really unfortunate...

Hi guys I was hoping for your collective expertise. I've have had my R9 290 for many years now and today while I was playing FC5 my pc suddenly showed a black screen losing sound also. I pushed the restart button only to find after the windows logo I got a black screen with no boot into windows. I started my computer up in safe mode successfully and re installed my AMD drivers to get the same issue after restart. I have now uninstalled the drivers again and can boot normally but with strange artefacts on my screen in different areas. I have my display port plugged into my GPU, I am getting display and the fans are spinning all at normal temps. (I have re-thermal pasted and dusted it) My question is what do I do! or is my GPU ready for the can, buying a new one will have to wait for this Mining plight to end

So I bought an RX 560 4GB PowerColor Red Dragon GPU on eBay used and everything was working perfectly fine. But after a few hours of gameplay, I start getting terrible artifacts and discoloration. Once I let everything calm down for an hour or so and get back to gaming (Paladins, Dragon's Dogma, Dead by Daylight) the artifacts stop until after a few hours of gameplay again. I don't know what could be causing this besides maybe a dying GPU? I checked the temps and with fans cranked to maximum (as I am playing games at 4K and doing so just fine with 40+ fps) the temperatures seem to stabilize around 75C-78C. When idle however, it is at 50C-53C and that is stupid hot for sitting idle. I was thinking of checking to make sure the thermal paste didn't need to be changed or if the cooler is seated properly but don't have the time yet. Any opinions guys?

Hey everyone, So I'm trying to diagnose my friend's card here, because it acts like it's dying. After he updated the drivers on his machine (23. January 2018), it started acting crazy. TL;DR: Something triggered a card into unusable artifacting (drivers / new game, no idea), most usual remedies tried, swapped into a system with basically the same card and older drivers that work, no success System specs: Friend's: i5-3570K stock, MSI Z77A-G45, Seasonic X Series 650, RAM unknown (I can find out), Win8.1 64bit Mine's in the signature below, runs Win7 Ultimate 64bit First encounter was on a game "Escape from Tarkov", game loaded, card under full load, in game FPS 1-4. After he recovered from system shutdown it went like this: no video signal on boot, tried different PCIe slot, no difference after a few tries it booted fired up Kombustor, everything OK fired up a game -> blue / brown vertical lines, different games very similar like this ->https://imgur.com/KCcJZId apparently it did this mostly with newer, more demanding games Oh oh, he did roll-back the driver + full driver sweep with no luck. Alright, so I took it to test in my system, as I use the same GFX chip (HD7970-DC2T), with basically the same cooler. To note, I have not updated my drivers in a WHILE (Radeon Software info - Sep16). + Overview and Hardware My testing so far: under light load with core speeds 501-1050MHz and voltages 0.950-1.200V respectively (2D video playback with madVR advanced processing and rendering), temps around 60°C -> everything OK fired up MGS5: Phantom Pain -> went well for ~2mins -> white screen freeze -> few seconds after sound freeze -> hard boot-off no video once again, quick shut-down, power cycle PS upon boot-up I got this screen -> https://imgur.com/k7A2eAX crashed my whole system, had to go through BIOS setup, but here is an Afterburner Log tried lowering Memory Voltage (1600->1520 mV) & Memory Clock (6600->6000MHz) through GPU Tweak, ran the game again, froze with similar artifacts - but I recovered a log from GPU Tweak that's attached Soo I want to try a few things: Flash the BIOS first with an updated one, then modified with stock clocks and voltages, first on the VRAM as I've heard the factory overvoltage can cause artifacts when VRAM gets too hot. I can't see any VRAM temp readouts on this card in Aida64 though.... I can on mine. Edit: Found the other temps in GPU Tweak, I'll need to setup a log I can comprehend and get them to OSD somehow. In comparison, I know my card artifacts occasionally, but it's minor (Pictures 1, 2 & 3) and can be fixed with a simple reboot. Same drivers, nothing like this. If it's a VRAM issue, I'll look into identifying which VRAM chips might need replacing. Thanks for any suggestions! MONITOR_Card1(20180215013920).log

Hello, A few days ago I was playing CSGO, and my PC kept randomly freezing and displaying a green screen with random shades of green on it while making terrible noises. I would just turn it off and recconect and all would be fine. A few days later my card stopped being recognized by the drivers so I reinstalled them. Although the card was visible in GeForce experience, the driver would never fully install. I started seeing some small artifacts in the form of blue lines near the top and bottom of the screen. I reinstalled windows (in an attempt to get the drivers to work), and now I see these artifacts in Windows, but not in the BIOS. I thought the card was dead, so I put it in another machine. There it worked fine with no artifacts. Back in my machine, again, the artifacts only show up in Windows NEVER the BIOS which makes no sense to me... Any idea what this might be? Thanks in advance!

Been troubleshooting an artifacting problem since I built my pc in april 1017. Posted a week ago (with not a lot of responses) which I linked below for more info on the problem if interested. My question is, would the fact that i notice the glitching/artifacting on my main monitor (4k benq with displayport) and not the secondary monitor at the same time (asus hd monitor with hdmi) give any clue to the nature of the problem? Could that rule out any issues like vram going bad? I would think that if vram was bad, it would send corrupted data to both screens at the same time? I really dont want to have to go through asus rma process. I dont think its the cable or the monitor because I think I saw the glitch on the 2nd monitor once (and DP cables from my research don't glitch like my problem)....but they are so fast and am looking at the main monitor 90% of the time so hard to tell. Thanks for any input!! cpu 7700k gpu strix gtx 1080 mobo asus z270e ram 32gb 2666mhz corsair vengeance lpx psu corsair ax760 all drivers and bios are up to date. No OC on gpu.

I turned on my computer and after i logged in to it after startup, there was a green lattice pattern all over my screen for just a moment. I quickly turned off the computer and turn it on again but there was nothing. What is happening? by the way i just built my pc for like just a month ago, didn't expect this to happen Spec r5 1600 msi gaming x rx 570 Crucial 8gb ram Corsair cx550m psu Mobo - msi b350 pc mate sandisk 120gb ssd WD 1tb HDD

I have a modified Dell XPS 8700 with a MSI GTX 1060 3GB OC, 10GB of DDR3 ram, and a 460W PSU stock with the PC. It has lasted me for about a year, but yesterday I decided to paint my room and had to disconnect my PC and put it on my bed. I was done painting and put it on another desk in my house and after 20minutes of usage, it started have purple and red artifacts and restarted, I was only watching YouTube, nothing too demanding. I then decided to play COD WW2 and after about an hour I got off, went back to YouTube and started having artifacts again. I tried to update the drivers, but after a minute of pressing Express Download on the GeForce Experience program the pc screen turned white and restarted and repeatedly kept doing it whenever I tried installing new drivers. I also looked into the PC and I see a light next to my PCI slot labeled RP4 AUX PWR. Any ideas on what is wrong?

Hello everyone. So the issues I have could take a while to explain but I'll try to be short. So all started a while ago where I noticed a significant degradation in game performance and quality. Apparently I had a faulty Ram stick and a gpu who's fans won't spin correctly so it would reach high temp. 80°C in every game is the starting point... SO I got new ram and a new GTX 1080. Ram fixed crashes, but the gpu didn't really fix performance such as stuttering, low gpu usage in almost every game, subtle artifacts etc. The weird thing is that in most games I reach high fps values, but the game stutters. Like small hiccups where the game seem to freeze for a short time (with or without Vsync)...dono how to explain it better. And on top of that there are artifacts such as very low draw distance in shadows, textures, horrible aliasing. Textures look so blurry 2 steps away from the character or whatever the game is. A weird effect on objects with straight lines where there appears aliasing all over the place, everytime when in motion. When standing still the effect is more subtle. Objects with low draw distance, like the blury textures I moentioned before. All these artifacts are heavy in games like GTA 5 or Witcher 3. At this point I'v tried alot of thing. Reinstalling drivers, reinstalling windows 10 or windows 8.1, new Ram, new GPU, tried moving game sin different HDD or SSD, updated bios. Nothing works. And it's one of those things that irritates. The majority of the games are playable, but some like bf1 struggle even with the setup I have. *Not bcs of low fps, but fps drops. (es. from 140fps to 50fps kind of drops) Parts: -Asus Maximus Hero VI -PSU, Corsair CS650M -Windows 10 v1709 -i7 4790k @4.0Ghz -Ram Kingston Fury 16Gb 1600MHz -GTX 1080 v388.43 Here are the videos where I got around the map showing these artifacts. The stuuers and artifacts happen in every game so it isn't an issue related to a game only. Also there is MSI afterburner where you can see the fps dips and the GPU and CPU usage. At this point the only things left to change are MOBO and PSU, assuming windows of nvidia drivers aren't the problem here. GTA 5 video: Witcher 3 video:

hey everyone, first of all i want to thank you in case you can help me - my problem first of all my old GTX 780 suddendly showed artifacts when it crashed during gaming since that crash artifacts where always vissible when playing games. 2 days ago i installed a brand new gpu ( MSI twin frozer gtx 1060 6GB ), (my old GPU: GTX 780 FE was showing wierd artifacts so i thought to replace the gpu). in the beginning the gtx 1060 worked just fine, low temps around 50 degrees under load but after an hour of playing the 1060 showed the same wierd artifacts that my 780 was showing. i ran MSI afterburner to check everything and i saw that the memory clock was going up and down like crazy, just like FB usage % and GPU load % NOTE: my motherboard still reconizes both my GPU's - what i think could couse this is it possible that my PSU bricked both of my GPU's ? is it possible that my PSU is giving not enough power ? can my RAM cause any artifacts? - what i have tried changing the monitor and cables ( tried DVI and HDMI ) reinstalling windows changing PSIe 3.0 16x slot ran on internal graphics ( no artifacts where shown then ) - what i am going to try testing the GTX 1060 in another computer trying another PSU on my own computer - specs CPU = i5 4670kGPU = GTX 1060 6GB ( the new one ) GTX 780 ( the old one ) PSU = Cooler Master B700 ( 80 plus bronze ) Motherboard = B85M-E ( Micro ATX ) RAM = 16 GB DDR3 ( corsair i think ) here are some pics of the artifacts https://imgur.com/a/yddrF( taken with screenshot via computer ) https://imgur.com/a/qXMpN ( take with cellphone ) https://imgur.com/a/yanTJ ( taken with cellphone )

first of all i want to thank you if you can help me.so here is my problem. 2 weeks ago my game crashed , frooze my computer and showed some wierd artifacts on screen. so i manually shutted my pc down ( pressed the power botten for a couple of seconds ) after that my computer would show wierd artifats when i started any game, even when i started windows. So i did my research and i found that it would be likely a dead or a faulty GPU. I bought a new GPU today and putted it in my pc. everything worked fine for a hour or so and then the same problems accured againI tried to bootwith integrated graphics, no wierd artifacts where showing then even when playing games on it ( could not get more then 5 frames but still no wierd artifacts ) .could it be that my PSU is killing both GPU's ? My specs CPU = i5 4770kGPU = GTX 1060 6GB ( the new one ) GTX 780 ( the old one ) PSU = Cooler Master B700 ( 80 plus bronze ) Motherboard = B85M-E ( Micro ATX ) RAM = 16 GB DDR3 ( corsair i think ) i have to note that everything is around 5 years old ( except the new GPU ) thank you for your time and wisdomhere are some pictures of the artifacts https://imgur.com/a/yddrF( taken with screenshot via computer ) https://imgur.com/a/qXMpN ( take with cellphone ) https://imgur.com/a/yanTJ ( taken with cellphone )

Hi! So ive seen couple artifacts lately on my screen, my gpu is Radeon R9 270X Gigabyte 4GB OC Edition. Should i be worried about them? is my gpu about to die? there's no high temps. ive heard that artifacts can be caused because OC. Any kind of reply is appreciated

Hello. It all started when I installed Windows 10. First time Witcher 3 just froze and these GPU access blocked notifications appeared. I overclocked my GPU a while back so I just turned down everything to stock values. Then the game froze after like 40 minutes of playing showing grid of rainbow squares all over the screen. It crashed Witcher 3 one more time and now I played Garry's Mod and it crashed the same way. Tested it with Furmark for a while but I was scared because temps were going higher than they did last time I did Furmark test. Is there any fix for this? I guess I should get some money for new GPU, huh?

Dont even know where to begin, I had posted this to several forums... with no luck. This could be just a weird combo of Video card / DP cable / Monitor that does this... this stuff is haunted. Here are my full specs : i5 3570 16gb ram GTX 1070 by Evga Newest Driver Windows 10 64bit Pro Monitor - LG 24GM77 (DP connection 144hz mode - might be the culprit) -------------------------- First of, this is not a video card issue, since I had tried 1060 by Gigabyte and same issue happens. This dude here shares the same problem with gtx 980, the only one I found online, which matches 1 to 1 he is using the same monitor as me: http://forums.evga.com/m/tm.aspx?m=2451953&fp=1&p=2 Basically when monitor wakes up from sleep - 1 out of 5 times - screen does weirdly corrupt. PC still keeps working, but if I turn monitor off and on - no signal. Restart fixes the issue 100%. I never fully put PC to sleep, just display. Images below is what it looks like. Looks like using DVI-D cable fully cures the issue. Initially thought MSI afterburner might have been it, but ya that doesnt matter. This never happened to my OLD R9 280X with the same monitor / OS / DP connection. I have so far: - Reinstalled Windows 10 clean - Tried different Nvidia video cards - Took a screen capture - which looks fine after restart So it leads me to believe, this is issue with : Current drive / DP port @ 144hz ... something goes weird when monitor tries to resume the video signal. But if anyone heard anything about this. Thanks!

This morning I turned on my computer to find this on my screen: Now this had happened before, a couple of days ago. I reseated everything in my pc. Tried a different monitor (pictured) tried the TV. Tried the GPU in another computer, it worked in that computer, plugged it back in mine, it worked fine. This morning I have Baked it and nothing has changed. The lines started off red, now they are mostly purple with a bit of red. They leave the proximity of the mouse but reform with every pixel the mouse moves and it doesnt recognise the screen resolution or show up in screen Shots. Please Help. This is the only thing the lines dont show up on, they show on everything else. There is no background rendered normally but these pictures were taken in Safe Mode Thank you

So I ran into an issue last night which I think is my GPU dying, as I was launching into game I got these (image attached) artifacts and sooner my PC froze and caused it to restart itself. I managed to only take 1 picture before it went off and haven't bothered much with it because I didn't want to potentially further damage my PC. This morning I decided to use my other PCIe (SLI mobo) slot to maybe check if the main PCIe slot is dying, and I'm quite sure it's not because I had the same artifacts on both slots, during boot and in Safe Mode where I was cleaning all drivers with Driver Sweeper and installed latest ones, during that time there was constant lines on the monitor about 1mm thin and they were within the RGB spectrum of colours scattered around the screen. I want to also mention that no overheating occurred during gaming/working and the card never reached over 75 degrees. I know the card is about 4 years old now and VRAM could start to give out. *The attached image was the first cause of artifacts and you cant see any other colours other than white or black, after a reboot it started showing green,blue, white, red* PC Specs: i7 - 6700K @ 4.00 (stock speeds) 16GB DDR4 Ram Corsair Vengeance Low Profile MB: Gigabyte GA-Z170-D3H GPU GTX680 - No OC, everything running at stock clocks PSU - CoolerMaster 650W

Hey, so I got a new PC and among the first few games that I installed was Need For Speed. However, it shows a lot of white dots on reflective surfaces, and I don't know if the graphics card is dying. It's more noticeable in-game but also in this live-action/pre-rendered shot (headlights, mostly) https://streamable.com/kp50 What do you guys think? Is the GPU dead?

Hi guys, I am having some PC trouble. I started seeing some trouble after I moved my PC to another country (just took motherboard, cpu, gfx, hard disks, ram and bought new case + psu) At first it was working great and all was a-ok. Then one time artifacts started showing up on the screen and windows froze. after restart it worked fine. however after I moved to another the pc to another flat, it keeps showing artifacts and freezing whenever i'm using the browser watching streams/videos or opening any game. watching streams works for a few minutes up to 20 or 30 even but then always windows freezes however games cause this to happen much quicker, almost immediately. Also after I restart from one of these incidents and try again it happens much quicker. unless I leave it be for an hour or to. I naturally thought it was a heat problem, but the temp tool shows all normal temps with max 65 C on gpu and 50 on CPU as i'm not overclocking or doin anything intensive. I also ran corruption checks on the windows using sfc command but that came up clean. I ran norton anti virus to check for malware but nothing came up as well. One time windows recovered from being frozen and shut itself down showing this error video_scheduler_internal_error Unfortunately my MB doesn't have on-board video so I can't test without the video card. Is there any way to confirm if it's a hardware issue with the GFX or an OS issue? preferably I wouldn't have to reinstall windows. this is my setup MB: Z68-UD3-B3 Cpu: core i7 2600k ram: 8 GB GFX: Nvidia GTX 560 ti PSU: 650W Corsair vengance OS: Windows 10 Any help would be highly appreciated. I'll upload a pic of the freeze later today thanks

Alright, well for the longest time I had an issue plaguing me where the two crossfire cards inside my rig would develop artifacts when sitting idle on the Desktop. If I would bring up anything somewhat graphically intensive, let's say a web page with a Youtube video the artifacts would stop, I minimize the window and the artifacts would come up again. I could game for 5 hours without any issues as soon as I hopped to the desktop, bam, like clock work the artifacts would come back. At first I thought it was a heat issue, so I modded my case with a exhaust fan pulling the hot air from both cards, problem still persisted. So then I fired up GPUz and started to look at the frequencies of the GPU both the memory clock and the core clock. I noticed that when I open said youtube window the Core clock would throttle up from 350 to whatever was required with a maximum of 1040 Mhz. Having said this the core clock would usually remain under 500 for such tasks, but it would throttle as needed. Also I noticed that during these tasks the memory clock remained really low, @150 Mhz. I found it odd that the Core clock would throttle but the memory would not. So it looked like the memory had only two states 150 and 1250 Mhz. In the end I hex edited my BIOS and flashed it with AtiFlash in DOS, I also disabled ULPS. Although ULPS did not fix the issue and was not the root cause, I like knowing that when I hop out of a game the fans will keep spinning to further cool down my card, instead of just stopping. I don't like the idea of one card being passively cooled after it reached 80 degrees +. Here are the changes I made. I edited my bios to never drop the Memory clock, so the memory clock is always at 1250Mhz now. I also edited my core clocks, my core now never drops below 500 Mhz, the next step up is 840 Mhz, and then 1040 Mhz. I also changed my fan profiles and a single temp profile. Since I raised the Core clock slightly and the memory clock completely I wanted to make sure that the card was not running to hot. So I raised the fan profiles by 10% and dropped the top temperature profile by 10 degrees. The single temperature profile I was worried about and changed was the 90 Celsius/100% fan one, I changed it to 80 Celsius/100% fan speed. Then I raised the other fan speeds by 10%, so 56% went up to 66%, and 36% went up to 46%. I can't remember the exact #s I used but essentially I brought them up by 10% from the original values. With all these changes to the GPU BIOS on both cards I now have eliminated the Desktop artifacts. My idle card temps hover around <50 Celsius, ~ 3-5 degrees higher than the stock BIOS clocks, and ULPS is completely disabled. Disabling ULPS: (link)Open regedit and search (Edit - Find) for EnableUlps then change the DWORD value from 1 to 0. Ignore EnableUlps_NA this does nothing. Keep searching (pressing F3) through the registry and change every entry you find in there from 1 to 0. Once finished reboot. Editing the vga BIOS: (link) I changed the Fan and Temperature profiles with a Hex editor, I used an application called HxD. Then I used the Hawaii Bios Reader application to edit the core and clock frequencies and then used it to create a proper check sum for the BIOS. After the edits you have to flash the BIOS to each card individually. I just swapped them after each flash, left one out of the mobo while the other was being flashed. I hope this helps someone with the same issue.

Hey all, so I've recently built a PC for my Mom as she's been wanting to swap over from mac for sometime. We decided on building her a system with an AMD A10 7050K, Gigabyte F2A88XN-WIFI mobo, Corsair CX 600 watt PSU, and 16 gigs of Kingston HyperX Fury memory. We're also using a Samsung 850 evo SSD. However, we're having issues even getting through installing Windows onto the computer. Whenever we start, the PC will either freeze when the windows starting symbol is up, or freeze on mobo splash screen and random dots will one by one start appearing on the screen. It also started to artifact on the boot drive selection screen back when we were just testing it with one of her old hard drives. I've ran a memory test with no errors, and swapped out her memory for the Crucial Ballistix Sport memory in my computer only for the same issues to occur. We also RMA'd both the processor and mobo earlier, and replacing either of those hasn't fixed the problem. Lastly, we also tested with another PSU we have, but that didn't fix the issue. We have also tried forcing integrated graphics (not using a PCIE card) over the PCI slot incase it was trying to use PCI graphics instead, but that also hasn't fixed anything. Does anybody have an idea on what could be wrong? Both my dad and I are completely stumped on what could be wrong. Below are links to pictures of the errors that have occurred.

Hi, i recently built a new computer about 2 months ago and about a month i have been having this issue. I will be gone from my PC for at least an hour and the color scheme will change to windows 7 basic. I think this must have something to do with the graphics due to this. However afterwards some of my programs will have graphical artifacts. They reapppear constantly. It has so far only happened to chrome and spotify. Whenever this happens it seems to affect spotify much more than chrome however. Whenever i start up a game tho it will have no issues. Also, when i change the color scheme back to aero through the control center the artifacts will just become white spots that disappear. specs: motherboard - ASUS maximus VII Hero LGA 1150 version GPU - Gigabyte gtx 970 windforce OC'd CPU - intel i7 4790k at 4 ghz RAM - corsair vengeance DDR3 at 2800MHz PSU - corsair RM 750 OS - windows 7 64 bit

So i am having this weird issue with my ASUS GTX 750 TI PH I Think its dying but sometimes when i start the pc it doesnt artifact at all even when on for a whole day it kind of looks like this if it is dying with what GPU should i replace it my CPU is: AMD FX6300

I Recently had an issue of red squares appearing on my screen and all the repliers on the topic came to the conclusion that it was windows fault and my hardware was fine; but now after updating to windows 10 from 7 these do not show their face as often but during times when the screen is completely black, say from unlocking to the desktop, between asus logo (mobo) and windows, quitting a fullscreen program or on Razer synapse. They do not appear anywhere else... However, something i believe that is related is far more annoying. My computer can be idling, like now, or under stress (Prime95/ Furmark/ Games- Far cry 3/4 - GTA 5 - Beamng Drive - Assetto Corsa) and artifacts will appear. These warp and stretch any on screen image from chrome, ai suite or after burner to 3d elements in games having new pieces going on forever. Also on the desktop when moving items around parts of the window is left behind or the wallpaper dragged with it. I feel that to fix this it was cost me but i'm unsure whether its cpu or gpu related. Or something else? i tried taxing each component as separately as i could with CPU on prime 95 and GPU on furmark but there was little difference that i could see. both CPU and GPU have been over clocked with them both now at stock clocks to reduce this. CPU/ GPU/ Other? Thanks! P.S. The issue does not show up in screen shots...

Hello there, So after I came home from work yesterday and turned on my monitor I came to see this weird, pixely I don't know what to call it, glitchy mess across the entire display. I've had it also not finding my DP input after having it plugged into the wall but not turned on for a while a few times before, but that is apparently a problem that is known with this model. I've never had this before and unlike the other bug where you just have to unplug the monitor for 10 secs or so and plug it back in I actually have to restart my PC to get rid of this pixelated mess. Has anyone else had this or is this just another known 'feature' of this model? I'm thankful for replies and or help
