Gpu Graphical errors (warning flashing lights)

Gpu: geforce 1070

Cpu: intel i5-8400 2.80Ghz

Ram: 16 gb 2666

I've been getting checkerboard errors and graphical issues with my graphics card, at first it was fine and I played vr games with it like half life alyx, but from one day to another I cant play anything with it at all, whenever I launch a game the screen glitches like a checker board, and when I update the card, the screen flashes bright colors.(as shown in the file I've shown)

 

Is my card dying? Is this a drivers error since when I update it flashes lights?

Maybe incompatibility between cpu or ram?

 

Any info is greatly apreciated, thank you.

If I recall, this is normally a solid indication your hardware is on the way out. What 1070 do you have and can you show a picture of the flashing lights?

 

Also something worth doing is a fresh install of your drivers, on the install wizard select custom install and the select the option that will do a clean install of the drivers, just to make sure they are ok. 

I can't stop spending money my stupid home lab, help.
