it keeps doing that and stops only if i disconnect the monitor and change the hdmi output on the gpu. please help me!

it is hard to explain the process so i filmed it, and please if you have any idea why is doing it let me know!


** later edit:
after clean drivers install, it got so bad it was impossibile to even shut down properly,so i took the whole pc apart and inspected the mobo surface with a magnifying glass and a strong light and found nothing sugesting damage, the psu was surprisingly free of dust buildup than took out my hdds, leaving only the ssd ant i tried to boot after a thorough clean up and a fresh aplication of thermal paste. it did not, so i installed the the newer HDD(2016) along with the SSD and failed to boot again. It seemed that only if i had the ssd and the old HDD(2013) it would boot but only if the two were installed in a particular order. i happend to know for sure that the old hdd( an 1 tb wd) had a few bad sectors and i was keeping it only for storing movies and music, but somehow it would not boot without that old junk. I did a clean windows install with just the ssd mounted and it threw away that cursed HDD and since i've done that it stoped doing any artifacts . for now.
 
to be honest i did not try it in another pc. and my monitor only has vga and hdmi and the card hdmi and dvi so i do not have a lot of options here. the gpu is 3 months old, as my old gtx 760 suddenly blew up on me after it ran for nearly four years with no problems, is it possibile that a deffective motherboard killed it and now it attempts to murder my new one? i have an mb and cpu upgrade planned anyway...
 
would try the GPU in a different problem, if it works fine, it's definitely not the GPU then 😱

does your old GTX 760 literally blow or something? that might cause issue to the motherboard's PCIe lane too perhaps? or even the whole mobo?

does your mobo/CPU had any integrated graphic? do you experience this kind of problem when running with the iGPU?
 
any idea how to diagnose the mb in detail? the voltages are stable and within norm, so are the temps. the psu is a relatively new corsair 750 (one year). plus, it is the cleanest part of my home, and i always kept it that way. another thing i observed is that after a clean driver install it works fine for a few days or even weeks than starts again
 



it started doing some strange black and white artifacts than it kept resetting, if i put it in a pc now, it uns for 20 to 30 secs than blue screens. i exagerated a bit with it blowing up, it just died

 
start with a complete DDU driver wipe and check your GPU temps

if that doesn't help, have you got access to another HDMI monitor to see if it does the same thing?

Or, if you've got an xbox or PS, test them with your monitor and see if you get the same issue

Might be the monitor that's playing up
 


any iGPU on your system? (so ur PC can run without discrete GPU)
if so, try to run it without discrete GPU (if the problem persist, that can mean that the GPU is fine and not the source of the problem)
 


gpu stays between 33 and 50 celsius, and the cpu runs a bit hot at a max of 65 to 70 in extreme cases. i do not have another device to test now, but i'll doit soon.


 

no igpu sadly. once the gpu acts funny, the whole pc is bricked
 


what;s ur system anyway?
what the madmatt30 suggest might be worth trying 😱
 


removed the driver, waiting to see if problem persists

 


when u use the RX 580, u haven't uninstall the Nvidia driver? clean driver reinstall is recommended when u change GPU, and a must if u're doing a brand change (from Nvidia to AMD and vice versa)

i see, the FX doesn't comes with iGPU, so u had no other means of checking through that option
any friend of yours had a PC? u can try to put it there and run couple things through their PC and see if the same problem occurs
 


i will in the near future, but for now it seems stable,especially after properly removing the nvidia drivers and reinstalling the new version from radeon.
