My graphics card is having issues. It doesnt work right when the pc tower is standing...so I have to run it laying on its side. When standing, I get artifacts on the screen....the vertical lines or rainbow polka dots, or the monitors dont get a signal at all and remain dark.
So laying the PC on its side at least allows me to use it to some extent. When I start up in the morning, I get the strange artifacts until the PC has "warmed up" a bit..then they go away. If I try and livestream though using OBS.....or play a game....the monitors will just go dark....I can still hear whatever was going on in Windows....if I was in a Xbox Party whilst streaming for excample....I can still hear them and they can hear me....its just that my screens arent getting a signal and I have to restart the PC.
Anyone know what is causing this? Is there a remedy? Or do I just have a bad graphics card and I need to replace it?
Any help and advise would be much appreciated!
