Sorry, I don't understand the issue with the Halo image. You might want to run the test on another PC or switch to a different GPU. Also, try using another display cable and see if it works with another monitor or even a DVD player. If only your GPU is affected, it likely points to a hardware problem. Check if your warranty is still valid. Prices for GPUs have dropped, so it could be worth testing yours now. It would be better to confirm whether your current setup supports the games you plan to play. CPU load can also affect performance, especially with higher resolutions or refresh rates. A 4K monitor needs a more powerful GPU than a standard one, while CPU usage helps determine if upgrading is necessary. Consider a mid-range card like the 9600XT for a better balance unless you're playing high-end titles.

The wall behind the gun was in bad shape. That’s what happened. I used my sister’s GPU and it’s been fixed now. Sadly, I believe it’s completely broken. It expired six months ago Sad Thanks for getting back to me.

Did you purchase your graphics card using a credit card? Many companies offer a year’s warranty on the product. Even outside the warranty period, you can reach out to customer support. They may be open to exceptions or partial refunds to retain your business. It’s definitely worth a look.
