[QUOTE="SuB8HaVeN, post: 297683, member: 20214"] I would try a different video card, if you try another monitor and it still does this. I have seen many ATi cards suddenly die, oftentimes because they (Sapphire typically) use sorry cr*p quality coolers whose fans tend to go out and cause the GPU to overheat and either throw artifacts all over the place or just die. Is the fan on the video card heatsink (should be silver or black aluminum) spinning? Is it making weird noises or spinning erratically? [/QUOTE]
