Hello,

So a few days ago I had this issue where, at first the screen was tearing like an old vhs tape when switching windows or after a loading, that went on for about an hour then, all of the sudden my mouse icon tore into bits and pieces and my computer got completely frozen.

Hasn't happened since but I still get screen tears now and then.

My suspicions are on the PSU but I'd like to hear a more experienced opinion on this, but I'd really appreciate any input.



My specs:


CPU: I7-8700k (haven't bothered to overclock it yet, around 30-45c on normal load [chrome browsing {20ish tabs but only use 2-3} + music] and 45-65 when gaming)

GPU: MSI Gaming X Trio 2080TI

MB: Asus Maximus X Hero

Storage: Intel 750 PCIe, 7200rpm HDDs

Memory: LPX Vengeance DDR4 2x16GB at 3000MHz

PSU: Seasonic Focus Plus Platinum 750W

OS: Windows 10 Home
