Try disabling overlays like the GPU monitoring software, or try toggling windowed/fullscreen mode to see what happens

possible. if graphics cards go wrong usually the entire screen flickers.

Thats... odd. Does it happen in ANYTHING else?

Just turning afterburner off isnt enough. You have to reset the settings first.

I reset the game and this happens in Project cars

[iamdarkyoshi]

Very strange. Since it happens on the screen capture, I highly doubt its an issue with the cable or monitor. Can you use afterburner to underclock the GPU?

Honestly I think the only solution left is to RMA the graphics card...

could it be a memory cooling issue because i replaced stock paste and maybe the thermal pads need to be replaced

I doubt it, the 1060s aren't particularly thermally excessive (looking at you RX vega)

 

It'd probably stay cool without any thermal pads...

For what reason? Even if you took it apart, you could still try RMA'ing it, some companies will accept RMAs on repasted cards.

 

@TheRandomness Any ideas?

I was looking at newegg return policies kms anyways sent a ticket to gigabyte USA and i still have a full 2 1/2 years to RMA my card.
