Searching for answers in visual artifacts.
Hello, I've been working with quite large visual assets (video included), and they appear unexpectedly whether I'm doing heavy tasks or just browsing in a browser. I was able to trigger this sometimes by stepping away from the full screen. I discovered a temporary fix: I'm connecting the GPU cables and PSU properly to ensure everything is stable. This seems to resolve the issue for a few days to a week before it recurs again. I'm hoping someone can help me find a permanent solution. Thanks.

If the items disappear when you move the cables, test with different cables and inspect the connectors for damage. You might be adjusting a cable that isn’t fully seated or dealing with incorrect crimping (pins on the wires) or a broken wire that reconnects when pressed. If nothing seems wrong, securing the connections with zip ties, hot glue, or similar methods could help. P.S., dust doesn’t aid in proper contact; regular cleaning can greatly improve cable performance.
You're looking for signs of socket damage such as cracks, discoloration, or loose connections. The previous issue with cables pressing against the glass panel suggests a potential electrical fault, which may have led to the panel being removed. For new cables, you can visit an electronics store or online retailer specializing in graphics cards and motherboards.
Damage could include cracked plastic parts, bent pins, and broken solder joints. Regarding new cables, it seems you have a modular power supply unit. You should reach out to the manufacturer to obtain the correct cables for your specific PSU—don’t mix them up, as modular cables aren’t compatible and can lead to short circuits. If you’re fortunate, you might find spare cables in the original packaging you kept safe. Should you lack cables or if the expense is prohibitive, consider replacing the entire PSU; it usually comes with all necessary connections. Have a great day!
Sorry for the repeated message! I removed the GPU and didn’t see any signs of damage. Could you verify it? I’ll proceed with checking the PSU next.
You might have misplaced the motherboard cable for the psi, as it appears to be being pressed against the case.
Visuals are appearing again, possibly only on my second screen. Could you check the PC? It might be due to the PSU fitting loosely or being removed. I’m planning to upgrade to a larger case soon.
Hello, I recently encountered quite large visual effects (video added), occurring roughly every five days. To fix them, I adjusted all the PSU cables temporarily, which seemed to work. But after another five days, the issue returned. Could this be linked to the case? The PSU is in a constrained position, requiring sharp bends for the cables. Also, earlier the GPU's cables were pressed tightly against the glass panel, leading to power problems. Now it resolves when the glass panel is removed. This suggests the artifacts might be related. I’m considering upgrading to a larger case that accommodates the GPU with cables and more PSU space. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks! adwadwad.mov
