That would be called Artifacting. Usually caused by either a bad overclock on the GPU/Memory, or faulty Memory on the GPU.

This maybe a dumb question but if i was to buy a new GPU would this fix my issue?

If the issue is failing GPU now and not a bad overclock on it then yes.

Don't forget to swap out display cables and check all the GPU outputs before dropping cash on a new card. What card do you have?

Well when I first got the computer the computer had a overclock on it but my game were crashing over and over so I just got rid of it completely and then it was working fine for like a month then this stared to happen about a week or to ago.

Is it still covered by warranty? Get in contact with Asus and if it's under warranty they should replace it for you.

RMA it. before you do, first use DDU and reinstall the drivers to make sure its the same problem. there's a new driver that was out today.

meaning after DDU and reinstaling the fresh driver, make sure you replicate the problem by playing the same game, if it does happen again then you have a memory issue.

Would that mean I need new RAM..? Bc I've already tested my RAM and no problem was detected. but this did pop up..

memory meaning your GPU memory, seeing that windows is also saying memory problem your RAM is also at fault it seems or you have a broken kernel/OS.

the best solution is you reinstall windows, and see if you have the same problem

even if u baught it secondhand it might still have warranty on the GPU  all you need is to get in contact with nvidia and they will guide you.
