Question Is it possible to fix artifacting

[NeonPlayer]

Recently i thought of buying a new graphics card and i saw a GTX 970 for a lower price that artifacts on windows and basic applications or in other words artifacts on non videogames stuff (thats what the description said).

Is it possible to fix the artifacting and get the graphic card for cheaper?

If it is a physical problem with the GPU, no.

Its probably a physical problem, but why it doesnt artifact on games?

Is it doing this with only DisplayPort or any display output used? My GTX 970 has an issue with glitching desktop (and games) when using DP. Using DVI "fixes" the issue and allows for 144Hz on my older monitor.

We all love 'cheap'.
But I'd pass this by. You don't really know what wrong with it, and you'd probably just paying someone for his trash.
