Problem with my graphics card maybe?

is this something that happens all the time, or every so often?

 

if it's all the time, try hooking up a monitor via the motherboard instead, to take the GPU out of the equation.

 

a spec list would be nice as well.

Hello,

Does anyone know what can be the cause of this?(Video below)

Thanks in advance.

Is that when you turn it on, or in Windows afterwards?

 

Check cables/try other ones.

If only in Windows, change drivers (use older ones if need be)

If both in windows and bios, RMA that sucker after checking display/power cables.

This occurs when turning on right before windows(maybe windows starts in the background?) and occasionally. Restart fixes it.

OS: Windows 10 Home 64-bit

CPU: Intel Core i5 4670 @ 3,40 GHz

RAM: 16 GB Dual-channel DDR3 @ 799MHz

MOBO: MSI Z87-G1 PC Mate

have you tried disabling onboard graphics so it's just the 970?

No i haven't. If i did i would not be able to use my third monitor(Damn you VGA connector and old monitors).

But better to check for testing purposes, then you can take it off the list of possible causes.
