Question Screen artifacts ?

[blakemead]

So , a little side-post for https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/pc-wont-run-properly.3775519/
But i thought the question isn't too related to that so i'd make a new post.

Running onboard gpu while waiting for a new one, recently i get those weird green fuzzy artifacts on the screen when under load and sometimes even losing screen for 5~ish seconds until it comes back on it's own , any idea what they might indicate ?

overheating? ram issue.
brand and model of the psu?

As for overheating , i doubt that , sits at 70C under load after changing thermal paste. Memtest didn't show any ram issues so i don't think it's that either , PSU is vero m1 600W from SilentiumPC.

Repair shop deemed it was the overheating , personally i think it's PSU but i'm not sure of either anymore.

How safe would it be to pop the psu open and check the insides? And if so, what to look out for.

If the PSU is in the problem, there's nothing inside to "check" for unless you have a lot of experience working inside PSUs, a load tester, and an oscilloscope. If the PSU's the problem, the solution will be replacement.

That's a shame.
Thing is , as it is right now , I have no telling whether it's GPU or PSU that needs replacement .
