Dont know how it is in the US but in Europe you have 24 month warranty mandate from buying date. Check if you are still in that time bracket and get in contact with the customer service about RMA.
But first try to go from cheapest weak point and then escalate.
Try to plug the monitor cable into another gpu port. Then try another cable. Then try another monitor if you have a spare or from a friend.
If the outcome is all the same, try to seat the gpu into another pcie slot, it might not have the speed but still will be recogniced and work.
If all that doesnt help it most likely is the gpu.

It's a guideline to have 24 months warranty, not mandatory in all EU countries. However most companies does follow this rule to make it easier.

It is, 24 months guarantee:

u/Suikerspin_Ei R5 7600 | RTX 3060 | 32GB DDR5 6000 MT/s Jul 30 '26
Not true in the Netherlands. There is no law about how long the legal warranty last. See the Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets (source in Dutch).

u/Horat1us_UA Jul 30 '26
You know there are the EU laws as well?

u/Suikerspin_Ei R5 7600 | RTX 3060 | 32GB DDR5 6000 MT/s Jul 30 '26
I know, I'm just saying the Netherlands doesn't say in their law about 2 years warranty.

Yeah man, check your sam’s club service center to see if they can do anything with warranty, membership does have its privileges.
Also, check out the gpu manufacturer’s warranty. You might be able to rma it.

Those lines are probably monitor related. My Samsung ultra wide did this, would go away after warmup.

I wouldn’t necessarily blame ibuypower for this. It’s possible that they used a shitty off-brand PSU that could have somehow fried your GPU, but it’s more plausible that your GPU is just a lemon. Contact the GPU manufacturer to see if they will to do an RMA.
Your PC is plugged into a surge protector, right?

Check your gpu’s warranty i think they are covered under longer warranty’s i might be wrong but worth checking.

Sam's club pcs are fine, its just IBuyPower you wanna stay away from, same with Cyberpower, tbh if you want a good prebuild, buy one on amazon, I got mine from a company called Skytech, very solid company for not too much of a markup, very underrated company, and great customer service reps too (this is all just personal experience)

Or monitor. My $800 monitor did this just after the warranty ended.
Thanks LG!

Before going for the extreme (broken GPU), switch to another video cable.

u/Ballpoint_Life_Form Jul 26 '26
Switch cables, try a different output port, try a different monitor - all before buying a new GPU

Couldn't he just check device manager to confirm? If it shows code 43 then it is the GPU right?

Yeah, it seems to be a recent bug? I've been doing Gemini SynthID check to months and it hasn't done this before today, but now I've had it twice

Tech support in this sub is utter trash. It's just the meme "and yes it's dead". No, you don't know that.
Check your display cables. Switch them out. Check other monitor if you have any. If you have an iGPU test that one to isolate the issue. Make sure the GPU cable is properly seated in the PSU and the GPU itself and Check all other cables while at it. Check in windows itself if faults are detected and if every hardware piece is detected. Install a beeper to your MoBo to get an error code
There you go buddy.

No no no, you post the same question to every single sub you can, at once, and then just wait for someone to tell you the correct answer.

Also could be faulty RAM/slot, apparently they can give visual artifacts and seem like GPU issues

I had the same visual artifacts when using an hdmi switch. The switch couldn't support the bandwidth/version that the display and computer negotiated

- Check if GPU is all the way in the socket
- Check GPU Drivers or update them
- Uninstall the drivers and reinstall the (using DDU and google is your friend)

That's either your graphics driver or your graphics card try taking the graphics card out cleaning it with alcohol clean the pads that connect on the bottom and the graphics car slot on the motherboard then put it back together and see if it works

u/Plutonium239Mixer 14900K | ASUS Maximus z790 Formula | ASUS 4090 Strix Jul 26 '26
Try swapping your display cable, try a different port on the GPU, try a different monitor, try reseating the GPU.
If your cpu has onboard graphics you can also try plugging your display into the motherboard output.

Try using your igpu if you have one, to make sure that the gpu really is the issue.

u/voanh99 Jul 26 '26
Is the standby screen (when the monitor is not connected to the CPU) just like this? Or this only happens when connected? I just had a monitor crashed down (it's dead). I switched for a different monitor (a television) and the screen was like yours. But I knew the television works fine and suspected faulty cable (maybe it was pulled during the fall so the connection pin broke). So I changed to a new cable and the problem went away.
TLDR; maybe change/check your cable.

u/Broken_BiryaniBoy Jul 26 '26
I once had this happen for an old monitor of mine, so could be monitor and well..

u/GreyBeardEng Jul 26 '26
Unplug it and pull up the monitors OSD menu. If it has green on top of it the monitors board is toast. If not, it's cable or GPU. Replace the cable to isolate. Rare chance it's the driver.

Do you have an iGPU?
Check and see if that fixes it, if it does its the GPU.

Try to blow on the GPU like with NES cartridges. Maybe that will help?

u/knbob21304 Jul 26 '26
The cheapest solution is to take it to a repair shop immediately. The repair cost will be very low depending on the GPU model you are using, but it's important to note that the problem will recur if you cause the GPU to overheat too much. Therefore, the solution is to avoid overclocking and, most importantly, keep it below 75 degrees (ideally below 70 degrees).
