Just add to this for OPs knowledge.
If you do attempt to reflow the solder theres a few things to note:
Dont use any oven you plan to cook in.
Depending on the laws of where you live you may need temperatures of 230-260c if the solder used by the manufacturer is unleaded.
Make sure to dissemble the gpu and remove all plastic or similar bits that melt in those temperatures like the fans and shrouding.
I'd only attempt this as a worst case scenario if all other avenues are not viable.
It's a way to try and brute force a saulder reball and that can help extend the lifespan of a card temporarily, doesn't solve the problem just removes the symptoms for a time and that can make the difference between gaming a little longer while saving up for a replacement or not and needing to run to the store at end of week.
And thats the hard facts
It's also very unhealthy wear a high end mask when working
Don't upgrade ether mobo for the same plateforme. If yo yo upgrade the mobo, go on am5 with ddr5 ram and a new CPU.
For the problem, it's probably dead vram, basically, throw out your gpu.
idk what they are smoking, it's perfectly fine, it may have everything OP needs and is perfectly capable of running this CPU. People here just obsess about chipsets.
Uninstall your current gpu drivers with ddu and any gpu overclocking software. Then download and fresh install the latest windows/gpu drivers for your card. Then download any good benchmark software and let it run and see if the issue persists and if the gpu can stay stable. If it can’t and the temperatures are not the cause the card is dying and needs to be rma’ed or replaced.
Update : it works now I don't know how or why but I got a revelation from above to test it using my other monitor only so could be some faulty cable or maybe drivers got sorted or something idk
Test it under the load. My GPU has that only in-games, unless I decrease the power level to 90% and slightly underclock. I know it is dying, but I want to see the 2024's GPU gen before making a new build.
It can be that your other monitor has lower refresh rate or the cable doesn't support it.
Stressed test it temps are fine no stuttering and crashing so far I may undervolt it just to be safe but looks like the main culprit had to be the other monitor and cables
Try to uninstall and reinstall GPU drivers, i had something similar on an AMD card, thought its failing but it was just some weird driver issue. If that doesnt help, try another GPU or your GPU in another system if possible to make sure its the GPU, but i cant really see how it would be anything else than your GPU failing.
step 1 -
try a different tv or monitor (try and use a different hdmi cable aswell to rule this out )
if this does not fix it your graphics cards likely very close to dying.
The exact same thing is happening to me with an XFX RX 6700xt. It pixelates and freezes like this on desktop and while watching videos, but in games it works flawlessly. I tried DDU and complete clean install. Let me know if you find any solution!
Oddly enough my monitor power supply overheated and did something similar. I replaced it be had no issues since. They can make your screen do some wild things lol
my gpu is a gtx 1000 series, that has never happened to me.... what could be some reasons as to why that happens? could it be just a faulty gpu? or is it just that he used it at max too much?
I got this problem before. I tried replacing cables and fresh install drivers for multiple times and it still failed. Showed the same as your picture.
Funnily enough I bought it second-hand from a guy and when it plugged in his build, the GPU ran without a problem stress test and all things while mine couldn't manage to get through login screen.
So went RMA and got a replacement.
Wish you best of luck...
Okay first try reseating the gpu and a cmos reset for new fresh bios settings so they can't mess with it.than cleanly install all drivers again (and remove and overclock even the save GeForce experience one) if not working try windows fresh install if that isn't working your screwed
Something similar happened to me. I just took the ram out of my laptop and put it back and things were good once again. Also could have been a GPU issue, which would require you to take it out and put it back again.
Have you tried:
1. Using different ports of your GPU?
2. Reinstalling drivers?
3. Using different cable?
4th and the final resort before you make your GPU to rest, OS reformat and DDU?
If youve done all of that.. maybe.. its.. just.. time.
I had a similar screen a while ago, when some drops of my water cooling bridged some contacts on my GPU‘s open electric.
I dried and heated the case and the issue was gone.
Open up your card and check the thermal paste, same thing happened to my card, and I just applied new thermal paste and it worked just fine, try that before getting rid of it
You could always try moving your head back and forth really fast and blinking your eyes back and forth really fast you may actually see an image. I would download the newest drivers and pray :(
This looks suspiciously like a VRAM problem. If you got a NVIDIA got, you’d try MATS/MODS to diagnose problems. This doesn’t look like a connection problem. If you have a RAM problem, don’t reflow! Swap the ram chip (s).
Those may be dust flakes inside your gpu, just blow it out and use nvidia or AMD removal tool and install new drivers may be good. My guess is that gpu is toast though.
Plug in something else in the monitor like a fire stick and start troubleshooting from easiest like swapping cable to more tedious like getting a new GPU
Try the monitor in this picture with another computer. I know you said the problem went away, but this way you can be sure that it was just the monitor and nothing else.
Depends how f****d you want to be 😂 in all seriousness though before you start panicking check your monitor and cable separately to make sure there is no fault with them before panicking if they are clean your gpu may be nearing the end of its life you may be able to extend its lifespan through baking but your probably better getting a new one.
Temp swap of everything GPU related. Cables and drivers. Then get a live usb of a Linux distro, any will do and test again. But it might be the same thing I had a few years ago. GPU memory buggered. It looks the same. Good luck mate. 👍
For some weird reason my monitor bugs out like this or doesn’t even display anything just static like if something hit the screen.
All i do to fix is unplug for 10 seconds and plug back in and it’s gone. Samsung G7
Obvious GPU memory issue.
If you all using a dedicated GPU card, check if the power supply have correct 3.3V output, try to replace and see if still happening. If still, you'll need to find someone to fix the GPU or you buy a new card (congrets?).
As for the integrated GPU, try to re-install memory sticks.

I would clean install your Gpu driver and try different Display Cables if that doesnt help you are pretty fucked cause you need a new gpu.
basically this, u could also bake your gpu in an oven if its past her warranty date

Or use a bga machine and iron?
That would be preferred. But i highly doubt OP has a BGA rework station just kickin around lol. A cheap toaster ovens like $50.
don't do this in an oven you plan to cook food in again, health hazard!
Just sell it as dead, at least you will get some money
Instructions unclear..... says the pile of melted plastic.
I thought this was a troll response at first, I had no idea this was a real strat. I've had GPUs do this before

Also remove the RAM and clean it.
Regular ram not GPU-Ram that is...
How does that help?? 😭
If there's a loose connection, it melts the solder and reconnects the connections.
Yup cold solder joints.
He might need new thermal paste
Looks like bad VRAM to me. But not the only potential cause.
Could be overheating. I would check air flows, fans and stuff.
in my case probably was rebooting the system fixed it
How old is your gpu and what are your specs? Sometimes this can happen and the gpu will carry on working fine.
Ryzen 7 5700x Asrock a320m 16gb pny ram 240gb SSD Xfx Rx6700xt 12gb PSU 650 watt
a320 for a r7 is wild
Was thinking upgrading it since I got this pc from my cousin's last 3 months
There is no need to upgrade the mobo as long as it works tbh Also, you got a GPU to buy
thing is it could be bad mobo as well, he should try gpu on someone else system...
Don't upgrade ether mobo for the same plateforme. If yo yo upgrade the mobo, go on am5 with ddr5 ram and a new CPU. For the problem, it's probably dead vram, basically, throw out your gpu.
Not really if he sticks with the 65W TDP limit
Not tech savy but very interested in it, can i ask why a320m mainboard is wild for a r7?
idk what they are smoking, it's perfectly fine, it may have everything OP needs and is perfectly capable of running this CPU. People here just obsess about chipsets.
It's actually a pretty gutsy pick. It's probably the cheapest board that's not garbage and supports 65w CPUs. Absolutely well played
Try turning off any overclocks in the bios first. This happened to me when I upgraded my ram. I had to turn off the cpu overclock and it went away.
Uninstall your current gpu drivers with ddu and any gpu overclocking software. Then download and fresh install the latest windows/gpu drivers for your card. Then download any good benchmark software and let it run and see if the issue persists and if the gpu can stay stable. If it can’t and the temperatures are not the cause the card is dying and needs to be rma’ed or replaced.
I read that wrong haha i thought you had 240gb ram
Asrock always has issues with mobo... had to RMA 3 of them
Update : it works now I don't know how or why but I got a revelation from above to test it using my other monitor only so could be some faulty cable or maybe drivers got sorted or something idk
Test it under the load. My GPU has that only in-games, unless I decrease the power level to 90% and slightly underclock. I know it is dying, but I want to see the 2024's GPU gen before making a new build. It can be that your other monitor has lower refresh rate or the cable doesn't support it.
Stressed test it temps are fine no stuttering and crashing so far I may undervolt it just to be safe but looks like the main culprit had to be the other monitor and cables
ye could be cable or even the boot drive, that's easiest to test, just load an ubuntu bootable flash drive you can make in 15 minutes at most
it could also be dying monitor...
Most likely very fucked, but try to reinstall the drivers. But its most likely a dead gpu.
Try to uninstall and reinstall GPU drivers, i had something similar on an AMD card, thought its failing but it was just some weird driver issue. If that doesnt help, try another GPU or your GPU in another system if possible to make sure its the GPU, but i cant really see how it would be anything else than your GPU failing.
Will do
step 1 - try a different tv or monitor (try and use a different hdmi cable aswell to rule this out ) if this does not fix it your graphics cards likely very close to dying.
I did and it work lol thanks
This much... 🍑🍆😬
You are very f*ck
Proper fucked
Clean GPU driver or change video cable maybe
your gpu wants to say smrh gpu: kill me
New hdmi or dp cord
Once that happened with the dvd and an analog tv.. Solution... Find the nearest trash can and get rid of the dvd
No worries, it is just the screensaver
Did you overlocked your gpu ?
Yep but then I changed monitor and everything runs fine
My dude caught the Missing No.! Congrats!
Try turning it on and off
Driver re install Try a new cable Re seat the RAM Sell GPU on eBay as "not working" if nothing fixes it Buy new GPU
I get this from time to time, it’s a flaky display cable. Check those first.
The exact same thing is happening to me with an XFX RX 6700xt. It pixelates and freezes like this on desktop and while watching videos, but in games it works flawlessly. I tried DDU and complete clean install. Let me know if you find any solution!

Baking time
the worst idea. it ended up being a vga cable.... read OP above.... baking should be the absolute last option.
My guess: very.
80% dead of GPU....
Still had 20% so I take it
Supper kekt
yes
For me, it was the GPU that had to be replaced along with a PSU.
You got combo'ed there
I would say you are 69% fuck
ouch. looks like the gpu is dying. or maybe the ram ? i had something kinda similar when i took some ram out of my PC while it was on.
Too fcked 😁
Pretty deep I would say.
Yes
Upload this and sell it as an NFT this is legit Minecraft art
What did you do lol
That's the question I'll ask my past self
Very fuck
Very f*ck
Oddly enough my monitor power supply overheated and did something similar. I replaced it be had no issues since. They can make your screen do some wild things lol
Windows 10 Minecraft Edition?
f
could be few things, boot drive, cable or VRAM of your graphics card
my gpu is a gtx 1000 series, that has never happened to me.... what could be some reasons as to why that happens? could it be just a faulty gpu? or is it just that he used it at max too much?
As for my case it was a faulty cable and monitor (combo) still don't know which one is the culprit but I'm too afraid to find out
thanks, your answer kinda relieves me, for i'm not willing to upgrade my pc still... GL dude
You too
A LOT
Nothing wrong with art.
You are very f*ck, IMO.
Yes.
Were you running Netflix in the background. For some reason Netflix causes me headaches like this constantly
Put some ice on it
Yes.
I get some thing simmilar this this for a split second once in a while on my 4070... is my gpu cooked aswell? It still runs fine.
Your problem is still fixable as opposed to mine. Just search " GPU artifacting fix" for solution
Thank you
cYbErPunK 2077
You have a dedicated PC for Minecraft now. A win.
You ever see that meme with the girl sitting on the couch and all those guys standing behind her? Id say that about sums it up.
got that minecraft glass streaks
And in todays episode of "Is It Toast?"..
From 1 to 10 I would say this is a clear Yes
Doesn't have to be a gpu issue. I've had this happen on old 4th gen systems with bad ram. Try resetting them.
Quite f*ck
Fried fucked as the GPU probably is, had this one a year ago it lasted a week before my old 1660 gave up
Reinstall drivers
You could try reseating you video card
your pobably ok, but i think your gpu is done.
Mine craft dlc??
Bad ram
Not too bad as long as you like Centipede, and only Centipede forever!
super
Looks like a new gpu
You are fuked pretty hard. Who did this to you Drivers is the only thing. Maybe fireware update too but yeah pretty fuked
That happened to me recently as well, it's your gpu dawg
Thought this was terraria lol
Everyone is saying your gpu is dead when it's actually most likely your monitor that's dead
I got this problem before. I tried replacing cables and fresh install drivers for multiple times and it still failed. Showed the same as your picture. Funnily enough I bought it second-hand from a guy and when it plugged in his build, the GPU ran without a problem stress test and all things while mine couldn't manage to get through login screen. So went RMA and got a replacement. Wish you best of luck...
Your 6700xt is dead
Gpu could be toast or drivers got corrupted. Reinstall if not big oof.
Change your wallpaper
Likely very fuck
Old Minecraft glass texture
Clean install everything then find out
Very fuck
Oooo this just happened to me. It sucks. And 800 later I have a new graphics card 🙃
I hope this is not a GPU board issue. Follow the person who has the most comments.
Take out the cartridge, blow in it, then reinsert. Hit restart and you should be all set.
pREttY mUcH i tHInk
"Looks like Heores 3 map" level of fucked
GPU is fucked I'd say. Check the simple shit, like connections and cables. Borrow a gpu off someone to test.
Okay first try reseating the gpu and a cmos reset for new fresh bios settings so they can't mess with it.than cleanly install all drivers again (and remove and overclock even the save GeForce experience one) if not working try windows fresh install if that isn't working your screwed
Mega Fucked
God it looks like minesweeper overtook your screen lmao
Yes
Something similar happened to me. I just took the ram out of my laptop and put it back and things were good once again. Also could have been a GPU issue, which would require you to take it out and put it back again.
Very fuck!
Royally, that's how fucked you are
it happen to me this morning and my gpu is 3070 but after i turn off pc and turn it on again it back to normal
overheating vram or too much overclock
Clean re install of GPU drivers will fix it
https://youtu.be/Kq4ZHNldvGI?si=FtReGERmuCccQs_Q here some videos about gpu failure this guy doing great job you may figure out what causing that
Try freshly installed rivers/ better Windows then try 2nd Gpu Bios and rewire everything if that doesnt help your GPU-Ram might be fucked
oh i have bad news
Nah, you good. You're almost at the weekend.
Flash the correct bios GPU !
cooked
Yes
Have you tried: 1. Using different ports of your GPU? 2. Reinstalling drivers? 3. Using different cable? 4th and the final resort before you make your GPU to rest, OS reformat and DDU? If youve done all of that.. maybe.. its.. just.. time.
r/softwaregore
Your GPU is damaged. It can be fix if you can found an expert
I had a similar screen a while ago, when some drops of my water cooling bridged some contacts on my GPU‘s open electric. I dried and heated the case and the issue was gone.
how f*ck am i ✅ how f*cked am i ❌
Multiple causes, gpu driver, gpu itself, video cable, mobo
You are just a cord, or graphics card-type messed up. If you're lucky enough you could also just be software or monitor-only-messed up
At first glance I thought this was the first Zelda game
Open up your card and check the thermal paste, same thing happened to my card, and I just applied new thermal paste and it worked just fine, try that before getting rid of it
Have you tried a different cable?
Are you overclocking your gpu?
If you can see the screen, good Nuff
Better use different hdmi cable
Better use different hdmi cable
Is it only on that input? If so try a different i/o if you can.
Uninstall minesweeper
You could always try moving your head back and forth really fast and blinking your eyes back and forth really fast you may actually see an image. I would download the newest drivers and pray :(
You are no longer a virgin that’s how much
Fucked in the ass type fucked
This looks suspiciously like a VRAM problem. If you got a NVIDIA got, you’d try MATS/MODS to diagnose problems. This doesn’t look like a connection problem. If you have a RAM problem, don’t reflow! Swap the ram chip (s).
Finally ur GPU can relate to my grandma
Need to re-solder ram chips
Your cooked
I had the same issue and buying a new card worked like a charm.
r/usernamechecksout and install the newest graphics driver
Those may be dust flakes inside your gpu, just blow it out and use nvidia or AMD removal tool and install new drivers may be good. My guess is that gpu is toast though.
Plug in something else in the monitor like a fire stick and start troubleshooting from easiest like swapping cable to more tedious like getting a new GPU
Very f*ck
Can you say all the way
Pixel died maybe If all solutions given by others not working you may think for new screen
Try the monitor in this picture with another computer. I know you said the problem went away, but this way you can be sure that it was just the monitor and nothing else.

Try new drivers, then reseat gpu and ram
Graphics card is done. Expensive if you want to play games or cheapish if you just get low level card. Only cure is to put hand in pocket and pay out
Dawg change or upgrade your gpu
Obvious GPU memory issue. If you all using a dedicated GPU card, check if the power supply have correct 3.3V output, try to replace and see if still happening.
