Hello!

I am having an issue with my GTX EVGA 1060, 6 gig v ram.
Whenever a game is full screen, or even borderless, specific areas on my screen will normally flash green or an assortment of colors.
It does not do this for a large variety of games, or goes unnoticed within the games.
I have switched monitors, cords, ports, and games. I have tried re-seating the card plenty of times, in two different PCIe ports. I have an 550w PSU.

It barely does this in Rainbow Six: Siege, with most of the graphical error in the home screen and never in game.
but in Sea of Thieves it is impossible to play without being in windowed mode.

In Sea of Thieves, If i move the task bar to a different monitor, it will cause the graphical error, even if still in windowed mode. If I put the taskbar back, it stops the error.

Only thing I could think of is my GPU has a bad VRAM module?
Thanks!

edit: I believe this is where my post goes, if I need to repost it within another sub-forum please direct me.
 
Solution
Try other GPU, if you have an extra one. Or try the 1060 in other PC so that you will know the problem is from the GPU or not.
