I've seen this happen to 3 video cards over the years. It's basically just RAM failure. It gets worse over time and eventually you'll see artifacts even in the bios screen, indicating that it's clearly not a software issue. |

i have the same problem but it's an rx480 this time, as depicted in the screen. no crashing issues however, the screen glitching only happens like less than occasionally it's what badspot said really, may look like a video card issue but i feel you need to do something with your RAM. also jun is correct: additionally, if you're crashing and you get some message like "Video rendering device has been lost!", try underclocking. that's only if you get that message and your Overwatch crashes. |
