I think it’s something in the video path though that is perhaps not useful.  Videocard, cable, or monitor if it’s a desktop. Others may be able to be more specific.  Perhaps the type of machine might help.  I can’t even tell from the video if it’s a laptop or not. There are lists of types of potentially useful information in pinned posts in the troubleshooting section that may be useful here. 

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.

Its a desktop - 
Monitor is Samsung Odyssey C24F673. ( 1 and half y.o. ) 

GPU is Gigabyte G1 Gaming 1060 3Gb. ( almost 3 y.o. )

and its connected by DisplayPort.

 

It stops after a while and now its ok. But its scaring me.

artifacting is normally caused by dying GPU

namely, VRAM most of the time

you may try lowering the memory clock speed, see if it helps

 

otherwise, your display may be faulty, it's hard to say really

-sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately
