Visual Distortion Issue Screen flickering and glitches are occurring.
I've been facing some unusual screen issues, particularly when using my web browser. The glitches appear sporadically—sometimes minor, other times covering the whole screen. Since I captured this with Shadowplay, I ruled out a monitor problem. This seems to be related to the GPU or RAM. I've also noticed performance drops while streaming YouTube in my browser; although audio remains clear, the frame rate drops to just 0.1 and I had to restart. The problem usually emerges after a while of use, not immediately after turning on the PC. Currently, I'm experiencing these issues with Corsair Vengeance 2x16 on dual-channel GPU.
By the day I'm more sure it's a RAM problem, because this problem should get worse in GPU-heavy games if it's a GPU issue. But since it's not that, it usually points to RAM. Just yesterday it happened really badly and I immediately disabled it with shadowplay, which caused the file to get corrupted. So it's probably a RAM issue now.
