HELP my GPU isn't working

I've bought a 3070 for my build and everything seems to be working but the GPU I have all the drivers and my PSU should be more than capable but sometimes it shuts down and says that there was a problem connecting the GPU or sometimes it doesn't say that and reboots with green lines. I'm just hoping I don't need to buy a new GPU.

Welcome to the forums!
Full specs of PC?
Did you try DDU?
What does Event Viewer show when the crash happens? 
Is there a blue screen or does the pc just shut all the way down?

I did that after this post. Took it out took everything off has been fine since but I'm still looking into it in case it continues to happen. It happened again while typing this.

You *just* bought this card? I'd return and try again. 
It's possible that the monitor is dying, and you should probably put in a different card and test to see if that is the case, but that return window is closing and this looks like a dying GPU.

Bought it from a rando? Or from a used store?

Its likely the seller sold you a bad card. It could maybe be your monitor like someone said above, but that screenshot seems like telltale GPU failure to me. What platform did you use to buy this? do you have a way to return it/get your money back?
