Oct 28, 2017 6 1 515 The computer have been built 2 months ago. Problem started appearing 3-4 weeks ago. These are the "symbols" I am getting lately. I am asking what kind problem would it be? Should i try to get a replacement? Thank you, for your help. Solution Not the only one, unfortunately. Look familiar? View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhkXUw4-35o Doesn't appear to be limited to any brand/mfg and has affected a few different skus (2070, 2080s and 2080TIs - haven't seen any reports on the 2060s). I would definitely start the RMA process. Sort by date Sort by votes

Apr 16, 2015 22,254 1,355 108,740 Ok, looked like it was, but was a bit difficult to read MSI AB with the artifacting. What are your full system specs? Is your GPU still under warranty? If so, I would suggest contacting the manufacturer for an RMA. That doesn't look good at all. If it's not under warranty..... I'm not sure. Temps look fine on the core, but perhaps the VRAM is overheating? Upvote 0 Downvote B
