980ti - Thin White lines

[Lived]

I bought a used 980ti very cheap that has been working fantastic so far. But I have a strange problem. When scrolling images in google a white line can appear on certain images when scrolling fast back and forward with the mouse Wheel. This white line can sometimes also appears in the game Alan Wake's 2D weapon menu when scrolling fast back and forward between weapons with the mouse Wheel. It's extremely fast and little and can be hard to notice. If the graphicscard is a bit broke it's not a big deal because I got it cheap. But if their is something wrong with the pci-express it doesn't feel that great. When I changed the gpu it was a lot of struggle getting the old gpu out and yes the locking mechanism was up. Im a bit scared that this maybe has broken the port in a small way. What should I do and should I worry?

Have you tried the old GPU to see if the problem exists with the old GPU as well?

Could be a broken Cable. Doesnt sound like a GPU Problem to me.

run the game and GPU-Z, shouid show PCIe connection status.

 

Otherwise, try underclocking the GPU core and memory.

Doesn't have old gpu anymore. Test hooking up my monitor to both dvi-d and HDMI, no difference at all. GPU-Z shows correct bus interference.

Downclocked memory and core as low as I could go in MSI afterburner, no difference. Memory -201 and Core Clock -90. This is not a huge problem but if something is wrong with my system I want to know.
