There is a lot of purple/green strips/dots all over my screen when starting my pc, and when I'm in windows everything is blurry and unreadable, and after a minute or so the pc shuts itself down.
I was away for a week and there was a storm while i was gone.
did my pc get hit by lightning maybe?
I cant get into safe mode or anything since i can barley see what I'm clicking on.

Is my gpu damaged?

It's in pretty good condition if it was.

 

Do you have a friend who could lend a GPU to test with? This looks exactly like a damaged graphics card, probably vram.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad
