Grainy Display/compressed

[Funkyfuture1]

My Display is Grainy/Compressed, now I know what most will say gpu etc, however, it is not. 

 

Bought all parts from a supplier and changed everything apart from the cpu. 

 

MSI B550 tomahawk mobo

Ryzen 75800X

32gb Ram 4000mhz

Nvidia 3090TI

Gigabyte 1000w Psu

1Tb Samsung ssd

LG 1440P 850 Monitor

 

I have exchanged all the above parts apart from the cpu as the supplier's techintian could not make out the issue. 

 

Before the TI I had a 6700XT and it was the same issue. 

 

I am suspecting that it is a cpu problem. However I have stressed out the CPU and results are fine. 

 

If I take a screenshot and view it on my Laptop its crystal clear. 

 

I have done all the troubleshooting possible, installed fresh clean windows, Icc profiles etc. 

 

Did all the monitor settings and nothing changes. 

 

Games look horrible, for example clouds look grainy and pixelated, if I look into the distance on an Apex map it looks kind of distorted like there is some fort of grain/ compression. 

 

If I switch the Hdr on its even worse it lloks like blocks on the monitor. 

 

If I plug the laptop to the monitor its crystal clear. 

 

Dunno what to do anymore.

You may be running on the intel drivers or in safe mode.  Which drivers you are using will be in device manager.  If you loaded drivers and the machine didn’t switch to them automatically they may be corrupt.  There’s a program called DDU that can fully remove driver stuff without a clean install (because wizards suck) so it can be reloaded.  It’s suggested to run it in safe mode, so download it, install it (it it comes zipped) make sure it functions and then either know the path to where it is or just throw a link to it on the desktop. Make a restore point, Then go into safe mode and run it.

You can see the grainy type picture around both weapons in the pictures.

That’s lack of focus.  It’s optical.  Reduce your f-stop.  Or the came is doing it to simulate photography like simulated lens flare or shutter reflection.  The one I personally love is those white dots in the eyes of anime characters to simulate the effect of studio lights.  They don’t always know where they go though and are sometimes random.

I actually found the cluprit today, I bought this system from a part supplier and part of the guarantee is that they put it toghether themselves, I never removed the cpu, but I was talking to a pc technitian at work and he said I bet you the cpu is not supplying enough info to the system 100%, he said he seen those grains and artifacts once or twice before and it was always incorrect display ICC profiles or a bad CPU. I removed the cpu and it wasent even seated properly, like only 75% was seated, around 15 bent pins. 

 

So Monday I am going back to the supplier, hope he doesent blame it on me coz I never actually removed the cpu, he knows well I went back to them like 10 times.

How on earth was the thing even running?!  One or two I would have risked it and hope they were grounds or something… but THAT many?!  That’s like that world war2 fighter plane that landed at its base with 1,000 bullet holes in it…damage that bad didn’t even occur to me…. Damage that bad on a no post wouldn’t even occur to me…. Well it might…. Just wow! 
 

GL getting those pins straight.  A very thin sharp sewing needle and a jewelers loupe were what I used. There may be some microsoldering and new pins involved.  Metal fatigue is a thing.  You might break them when you try to straighten them.

Im returning it, all I had is problems since this build and I forked out a ton of money for it too, 6 months of back and forth. 

 

Their technitian is crap, he should have know before, he replaced two boards. 

 

I am amazed too it even ran says a lot about Ryzen chips. It was running great too, like overclocks and everything else managed 5ghz on it, the only issue was the 720p like resolution and artifacts.

There are advantages to pga.  AMD kept it as long as they possibly could.  If you can do that you win.  Returning anything with bent pins on it is always an issue because they will invariably say you bent them.
