Happens very fast and very hard to replicate. Mostly on YouTube Opera, Edge Browser does it also. I have zero issues in game so far. Running ALL Benchmarks Card looks normal.

I'm getting 13500 scores on Port Royal with zero OCing and card is never going above 60c

This seems to either be a Windows issue or a Driver issue.

I've looked around and saw Nvidia Clean install should fix, it didn't.

DDU didn't either.

Happens mainly during a scroll down with multiple things happening on screen.

Any help or guidance or if this is happening to you jump in,

Thanks!

Edit:
MSI B550 Unify
R7 3800xt
HP V10 3200 CL 14 I'm running it at 3600 CL16 right now
MSI Gaming Trio X 3080ti
WD Black SN770 500GB for the OS
Samsung 970 EVO 2TB for Gaming
EVGA Super Nova 1000GT

Everything was bought new within last 2-3 years. Drives are less than a year because I upgraded to M.2 no drive is above 70%. OS Drive is at 49%

Top Monitor is a LGC1 65inch OLED Connect through HDMI
Bottom is a LG32GP850-B connect through Display Port
Windows 11 Home

Update your post to include full system hardware specs and OS information.

Include PSU: make, model, wattage, age, condition (original to build, new, refurbished, used)?

Disk drive(s): make, model, capacity, how full?

Make and model monitors? Connectivity (DVI, HDMI, DP)?

= = = =

Use Task Manager and Resource Monitor to observe system performance.

Use both tools but only one tool at a time.

Open tool window and simply observe system performance for a minutes while doing nothing.

The, leaving the tool window open and viewable, do what ever seems to cause the checkerboarding.

Watch for what changes in the tool window.

Take your time, be methodical, and watch carefully.

Ive been having the same issue for awhile on both a 3060 ti and a 4060 ti. Originally, many people had posted about the same issue on the Nvidia drivers problem page and Nvidia initially said they were aware of it and that it was thought to be a driver problem, then they took a back step and said it was an issue with Windows. So now it's all a bit in limbo but many people are still waiting for a fix from 'somewhere.' It is super annoying, like you said, I have no problems when gaming, but get the check board pattern when scrolling on the browser on some web pages, usually if the backscreen is dark/black.

I don't know. I have never encountered anything like this. I think it's Windows because I rolled back two Drivers ago before I started noticing it and it's still there. I'm not chasing Windows updates trying to figure it out.

I guess we just wait and see. It's not the worst thing in the world but I don't want to see anything like that. I have 5 extra points of Blood Pressure both top and bottom from just owning a PC so I don't need anything adding to that.
