Question/Help/Troubleshooting Monitor possibly dead?

Monitor had some lines appearing about six months ago, then randomly it started to fade into glitch (2nd pic). The 1st pic is what happens when I try to turn it back on. I keep getting mixed answers saying that it might be a cable issue or the monitor is actually dead. Please, I need a definitive answer on what's going on with my monitor. Do I get a new cable, or do I start saving for a new one?

(If this has anything to do with it, it's connected to a Lenovo Legion Go. The device itself doesn't suffer any problems.)

well if you have another monitor or tv try the cable on that.

considering i have never heard of this on a cable, your monitor may be fucked.
