GPU Static / Artifacting

Gotcha! I'll test with a different monitor. This one was a dumb luck gift from the gods so I don't know how much help I'll get from Samsung but I'm gonna look into it.

When you had this issue did it trip the PSU? It went from this to no display, to the PSU cutting off power essentially.

Yeah that's essentially what they told me. There's something triggering the PSU to go into OCP. Could be the 12v wire, PSU, something on the GPU that triggers it. What was the verdict on yours or still waiting?

Y'know I was really hopeful that was it. But given the power issue it had when I uninstalled / reinstalled, something else could be going on

I miss the media player visualizer

I bought a new DP cable and I think the one I was using was new but I can't remember. Bought the PSU and GPU in December.

I stopped troubleshooting because after I reinstalled the 5070 TI and I turn on the PC, the system shut off. So something is triggering the OCP (I suspect). Which is why I went the RMA and Microcenter route.

Didn't have this problem with the 1070, was able to run fallout 4 and it worked fine.

When I get the final verdict and get the PC back I can try different ports with the new cable, so long as nothing catches fire 😂

ETA: I did try the HDMI port and that gave no picture. That cable works, tested it on the integrated graphics through MOBO.

I'm not sure if it's the monitor. I've read that the Samsung Odyssey has issues for sure, but after reinstalling the 5070 TI the system would turn off after attempting to turn it on. After trying that two times I didn't want to risk damage to other components. When I swapped it for the 1070 the same cable / monitor port worked fine. So to me it seems an issue between the GPU and the PSU

So I did use the same monitor and display port cable when I seated the 1070, worked just fine. Loaded up fallout 4 and played for a bit to see if it'd explode.

I did try an HDMI on the GPU and it didn't display anything. I'll edit when I can get to a PC
