Hey Guys,

I recently bought a MSI 1060 Gaming x and am doing stress through playing almost all high end games at high setting for giving peace to my mind that this gpu would last longer. I had pretty bad experience with my previous GPU as it didn't even last a year. Okay, while playing witcher 3 on my MSI 1060 Gaming x with everything at max setting, i noticed some tearing on walls and ground which usually occurs while raining or being in an underground cave. This have gotten me really worried as whether this shows a sign of a faulty graphic card. I have posted the video while experiencing those tearing, so you may share your opinion. This doesn't occur in other games.

that doesnt look like tearing or artifacting it almost looks like a texture problem within the game. If its the only game this happens in I wouldnt worry about it. Check your GPU temps at idle and under load, I bet they are within the normal range.

Does the game use much ram? If so you'll need another module. 16gb seems to be the sweet spot for gaming. It could do this when you are using alot ir all your available memory.
