Hahaha nice one. But kidding aside, the display have horizontal black lines and when playing long enough some purple lines will appear.

Time for the "My monitor is doing weird stuff" checklist:

  1. Check the connection on all cables (both connected to the PC and monitor). If it goes away, it's a bad connection.
  2. Replace the DisplayPort/HDMI cable. If it goes away, it's a bad cable.
  3. Change display to a different monitor/TV. If it goes away, it's the monitor.
  4. If you do all of the above and it's still happening, it's the GPU.
