It's surprising how much time has passed since my last update here. To my surprise, it seems like more time has gone by than I thought. Still, I think I could benefit from your assistance on this situation. So, a while back—over two years ago—I posted about the artifacting problem I encountered with my gaming setup after replacing the motherboard during troubleshooting. [You can review that thread, but I made sure to mention key points clearly, even if it gives you a rough idea of what happened.] Recently, I received an update: just yesterday I switched from the RTX 2070 SUPER to a brand new RTX 4070 Ti. I assumed the problem was with the graphics card itself. But after installing the new GPU and updating my driver through GeForce Experience, the issue persisted! [Also, I used DDU to remove the old driver beforehand. Overall, aside from upgrading to an i7 10th Gen processor and switching to Windows 11, nothing changed much.] I revisited some of my previous posts about this topic to refresh my memory before writing this one, but I’ve considered a few possibilities now. I’d really appreciate your feedback to confirm my thoughts. From what I’ve experienced over the past couple of years, I suspect the fault might lie with the Displayport cable I’ve been using since the start. During a careful check, I didn’t spot any visible damage on the pins, and the card’s interface seemed fine. The only cable I had was the one from my monitor, which I inspected closely too. Unfortunately, I don’t have the right tools to test it properly—my background in IT is limited, and I haven’t worked in a repair shop. Still, I’d value your insights or suggestions. Would it be helpful to test the cable myself, or should I go ahead and try it out? In the meantime, please keep an eye on this and let me know your thoughts. Thanks in advance for any help!

Test the cable on a different system that is already functioning and observe the outcome
What's being sold for five dollars on Amazon? You haven't mentioned the item...
Choose a cable. Start with the simplest option. If not, you probably already have an HDMI cable and a TV at home. Connect it to that device.
Sure, I see. It looks like we don’t have an HDMI port on the TV, but I can obtain a DisplayPort cable and test it.
