New GPU has artifacts
I received a new GPU, an Asus dual fan RX 6600 V3.
During gameplay in titles such as GOW Ragnarok, Last of Us Part 2, and Spiderman Remastered, I noticed artifacts.
In Spider-Man I observed a brief red line appearing, which also occurred during photo mode; it resembled helicopter lights and street lights flickering in the scene.
In GOW I saw two white artifacts—one small and one larger.
In Last of Us Part 2, most of the screen turned white for a split second.
The drivers are 25.6.1, temperatures stayed low between 70 to 75°C, and my hotspot reached 82°C.
I ran the artifact scanner in Furmark for 15 minutes, but nothing was detected.
I can still replace the card, but I’m unsure whether it’s necessary. I used DDU to uninstall all drivers.

Your PSU meets the basic requirements for that card, not a top choice at first. Its age might matter, but it's difficult to judge clearly in this case. Other elements like the monitor and cable connection type could also affect performance. I wouldn't say it's causing artifacts, but it might produce strange visuals. If it's new or replaceable, I'd consider ordering a better one with higher wattage and better quality.
