About 3 days ago, I downloaded a windows 10 update (possibly not related) and the next day my computer was acting up. I saw weird vertical lines of pixelation when my cursor was over a tab in chrome as shown in this picture [MEDIA=imgur]a/j52zB[/MEDIA] which later also showed up in gifs, pictures, and other things on my browsers. [MEDIA=imgur]a/lUasZ[/MEDIA] Also when going on twitch.tv the audio was very distorted. But watching videos on youtube didn’t have any distortion. Confused, I went to twitch.tv on a different browser and the audio sounds normal. And it wasn’t just browsers, upon opening the League of Legends launcher, for example, the distortion was there as well. I didn’t really understand so I tried all the usual stuff, check updates, drivers, etc. everything was already up to date and whatnot. So I figured it was windows. I reinstalled to an earlier version, which did not fix it either. So I concluded that it must be my gpu. So I swapped gpus with a roommates to see the effect, my gpu in his pc didn’t have the issue, but his gpu in my pc still had the problem. That’s as far as I have gone, my roommate thinks its the motherboard, but I don’t want to have to tear apart my pc just for it not to be the problem, any ideas?
