Accepted solution by Pia — oof check that the PCIe power connectors are fully seated and not melted or discolored. power issues can produce artifacts under load.
  1. im literally losing my mind here please tell me this is a driver thing lol glitches in 3D apps on my gaming desktop, starting right after the HD Graphics 4000/2500 Driver update:

    gpu artifacts

    the card isn't new but it's never shown anything like this before... temperatures look normal... i've tried a different cable and the artifacts are the same... i'd like to know what to test befroe i convince myself it's dead, i also do some photo work on the gaming desktop, sooo i really need to know whether i can trust what i see on srceen right now. im about to throw this thing out the window lol

  2. ok but do the artifacts show up in BIOS or in Safe Mode, or only in normal Windows? ??

  3. ok so reset any overclock or undervolt, especially memory clock. Artifacts that look like small colored blocks are often VRAM instability, and a driver update can change memory behavior enough to tip a marginal OC over.

    day one patch is bigger than the actual game, classic
