Black / Red squares on Screen.GPU possibly RIP

[alex_kid94]

Hello guys , and thank you for bothering to read this.

As it can be seen on the attached photo , i have small squares appearing all over the screen when i start my computer.
The problem may manifest itself also via a different way , as shown in the second photo where you can see (if you look closely) small red squares.


I have asked friends from University and at work , most of them are saying that my GPU is artifacting and that i'll have to buy a new one.
Others say it is a driver issue.

If you have any ideas and or solutions to this problem , feel free to pitch in.

Once again thanks for taking the time to read me.

Have a nice day.

Alexandre

RIP GPU, sadly. Seems to be a hardware failure

What GPU?

Tried the drivers yet? Use DDU in Safe Mode to uninstall drivers, reboot, reinstall.
