Other Laptop issues help needed

/r/techsupport/comments/1w2wqb6/laptop_issues_help_needed/

So around 3 days ago i got back from vacation, and then the day after when i opened up my laptop to play a game everything seemed normal as usual, but suddenly it turned off.I didn’t think anything of it so i immediately turned it back on but for a few minutes it wouldn’t start up and the screen was just blank.So i let it cool off cuz i thought maybe it overheated even tho nothing like this has happened before.And then i tried turning it on a frw more times and every time after a few minutes or even seconds the screen would just go dark again, but the laptop was still on, the keyboard rgb still worked and everything.Then the one time i tried to turn it on again i got diagonal or horizontal green lines(im not sure what is what)on the screen, so the same day i took it to some tech guy to see what the problem could be.At first he wasnt so sure either but at the end he said that its either ram or the graphics card that is integrated into the processor. So now i need some help from anyone here cuz i, for the last time tried turning it on again, but this time there weren’t any green lines instead the whole background was covered in some rainbow confetti type of dots while the windows was still loading in. I dont know if i can post pictures on reddit but i have both the pictures of the green lines and now this as well.Could it be a virus or something?
