DVI artifacts

[MilosDeus]

Started getting some artifacts on the monitor, top right corner horizontal lines flashing, black and white snow, sometimes green screen for a second, only in game or video playback, normal on desktop( no artifacts, maybe a bit lighter colors but not sure).

Have two monitors connected, one on hdmi one on dvi (over dvi to hdmi adapter), artifacts shows only on the monitor that is connected to dvi , tried different monitors, only 1 monitor on dvi, different dvi port, still artifacts. Just 1 monitor on hdmi all works fine.

Problem started the day i cleaned the pc, maybe connected cant see how.

 

Looked online for clues: Bad cable-all works well on hdmi port with the same cables,

Driver- all works on hdmi, still clean installed different driver same story,

DVI port died/dying- both dvis?,

Graphic card dying(Bought maybe less than 6 months ago)- would it work on hdmi but not on dvi,

The one i don't understand something about PSU ground lead( I don't know maybe someone can explain),

and the one i suspect bad dvi-hdmi adapter.( ordered new one before i thought anything else could be wrong)

 

Anyone have an idea what could be the problem, everything worked fine for the past months since i bought new graphic card and psu.

is it passive or active? (HDMI to digital DVI or HDMI to analog DVI)

If you are asking about the adapter its DVI-D to hdmi, only digital output on the dvi graphic card.
