Green and pink pixel patches all over my screen?

[Aniks]

Good morning/afternoon/evening. I have come across a problem that I cannot solve and I need some help. You guys on here seem to know what you're talking about so.. this is the first place I came/am coming. Basically, here's what happened. The day before, I loaded up my Sims 2 game and it crashed. The next day, I opened google chrome as well as Bluestacks (an emulator), and these green and pink patches showed up on my screen. They flicker a lot as well. Here is a provided picture.

My display driver is a RADEON X700 PRO, and according to my computer it's ''working properly''.

If there is a resolution setting in Furmark, set it to the native resolution of your monitor.
If it is already set then I am very sure you have a problem with your GPU

There ya go, GPU temp too high

I would recommend replacing your graphics card instead of improving ventilation in your case
Newer graphics cards have better coolers also so a new card would give you better performance and solve heat problem

In the meantime, can I remove the card and use the one built into my computer to prevent the green and pink patches? Is there anything I can do to continue using the computer w/o the patches?

Sadly no, the Pentium E6700 has no onboard GPU, so you will have to replace the GPU to continue using the PC without the patches, however this brings up another point, the E6700 is a relic, it dates back to 2006. It may be time for a major PC upgrade or new one entirely.

So there's no integrated video card that I can use in the meantime? Like, the one I had before I installed the radeon one?

No, it doesn't have onboard graphics, but i would strongly urge you to start replacing things.

Alright then, I'll get on that soon! Thanks everyone for the help!

Wait what other card did you have before this Radeon?
