Short long story.I bought a new gpu(r7 265) for my mom's pc and the vga has some kind of interferences.I tried another monitor,4 cables(2 new),2 dvi to vga adapters,cleaning the slots,isolating the components inside,all pci slots and no results.The lines only appear drastically when in game, but they are always visible.The hdmi works flawless, but that is not an option as she will used mostly the vga lcd.Should i rma it or do you guys have anything for me to try?

Beware of him that is slow to anger; for when it is long coming, it is the stronger when it comes, and the longer kept. Abused patience turns to fury.

So you don't have a monitor that you can use that doesn't require a dvi to vga adapter?

I do, mine, but the interferences occur.What is strange is that hdmi works perfectly
