Screen Tearing and Upgrading

[JustAddMilk]

And certain points within my game play the screen will just mess up. On League of Legends randomly and object will trigger it. Example i look at a mushroom on the map and the object stretches all over the screen, move away and its gone. Now for the rest of that game it will stretch that object if its on the screen. Will continue to do so until the game is over. second example is black ops 3, The death marker will look like its obstructed by purple checkers. This happens many times in the game randomly. I either have to turn the settings up or down and it stops. This happens with v sync on and off. When i have COD loaded and tab out checkered boxes form on webpages, Skype or anything I'm viewing.

I am using a r9 280x Sapphire TriX with a monitor that was taken from a store bought home PC.

Usually Black Ops 3 runs at 40-60fps on medium-high and a little lower when streaming, tearing affect is worse when trying to stream.

Now i would like to stop this all together. Whats the solution? New monitor(60Hz 1080p monitor), better GPU?

Also wonder what your thoughts are for buying another 280x or scraping my current for a 390x?

If new monitor then please send a link, under 200 please

Upgrading either monitor of GPU not MB or CPU so don't tell me to switch to Intel right now.

It's probably not a monitor issue. Try reinstalling all of your graphics drivers.

I just reinstalled my Graphics drivers last week

I looked and BO3 locks the refresh rate at 59.40Hz for my current monitor. Should i also change the setting of the monitor properties to 59Hz

If you can upgrade your gpu and cpu! 

But try backing off the clock speed on your gpu! If that doesent work then cpu.
