Have you tried any other browsers? Does it happen consistently?

No and it happens quite randomnly, started tonight. Could it be a virus? Doing a system scan right now.

It might just be a fluke. When's the last time you rebooted? That might solve the problem. Have you also restarted Chrome?

What do you mean fluke, just a random glitch?  Also opened my case so maybe my PCI cable loosened out or the PCI-E connector, could that be possible?

Every little check helps.

I get random shit like this on my graphics card as well (Sapphire R9 270x Tri-x) its dam annoying.

Im pretty sure with mine its to do with VRAM overheating.

It very well could be something with the VRAM. On my 560 Ti, I accidentally overclocked the VRAM to 3.1GHz (Afterburner) and I got a lot of artifacting. It was so bad that I had to do a hard reset.

I don't recall overclocking my card. I'm at 7010mhz mem clock at 1200 volt.

Does it happen while you play games too?

 

Have you tried disabling all the plugins/extensions to rule out something buggy there?

I think maybe it's my adobe flash plugin that was crashing? It does not work anymore.

Not 1200V. It would be 1200mV.
