Step-by-Step Fix
1
Check GPU Temp
If over 85°C, clean your PC fans and improve airflow.
2
Downclock GPU
Use MSI Afterburner to slightly lower the core and memory clocks.
3
Try Different Cable
A bad HDMI or DisplayPort cable can cause visual artifacts.
When to See a Technician
Artifacts are a serious sign of hardware failure. If they appear in all games, the GPU is likely dying.
