Unidentified GPU issue
You're experiencing an issue with your GTX 960 EVGA SC card, and you've confirmed the PCIe cable isn't connected. It might be worth testing the connection directly to rule out other factors.
You mentioned the PCI power cables, yes? Those are essential for powering the card, and it’s puzzling why you’d skip them. I’m not sure about the exact card, so I don’t know if the green lines appear normally without them—it looks strange but I’m not sure. Could be a VRAM problem. Has this been happening recently or did you just get the card?
The PCI-e cable linked to it would fix the issue. If the problem continues, I’d assume the card is faulty.
I checked to ensure it would operate safely for my PSU, then attempted to connect the PCIe cables.
Once you connect everything to the card using PCI-E cables and verify it properly, you'll understand the process.
