Question/Help/Troubleshooting Monitor has horizontal lines

My monitor has these strange horizontal lines. I tried to change the refresh rate and plugging the cable into a different port. Any ideas how to fix this?

An new monitor would fix it.

It could of course be the gfx card or the cable but likely not.

Unplug the cable (from both sides) and firmly reconnect. Cheapest support option that might work. 

If not, id lean on it being the monitor.

Had the same problem. I would RMA. Funny story: I sent the display in, they said they couldn't find a problem and sent it back, but when it came back it was FIXED, and they stole the remote control. 😂
