So I have a rather new problem that I am not quite sure if I should be worried about yet. Lately, right after boot, I will have distorted artifact lines running across the last centimeter down at the bottom of my primary monitor (I have a dual). For some reason, this appears to only happen on that primary monitor and it seems to last about 10-20 seconds before disappearing entirely until next boot cycle. I want to believe this is purely a software problem and may possibly be related to how Windows 10 handles driver initiation upon startup, but truthfully I do not know. This is a rather new issue and I do not have a lot of information quite yet, I had only thought to be proactive in posting on the forums in case this is a sign I should be preparing for possible replacement.
Currently reinstalling drivers to ensure that is not a problem.
Here is what I do know:
Should not be a temperature issue. I placed my card on a waterblock nearly a year ago and my temperatures only ever hit ~45 degrees C on the hottest of days.
Should not be overclocking, I have toyed with my clock speeds before and already know my particular card has a 2050Mhz wall. Anything beyond that is a crash, anything before is usually stable.
And that is about it. If anyone has seen something like this in the past let me know what the situation became in later days and what you ended up having to do to repair it. If this escalates any further I will see if it is possible to capture what my card is doing with a screenshot, and if that doesn't work then I may post a classic potato photo of my monitor.
