Graphics card acting up, need some advice

Дата публикации: 16-09-2026 12:59:48

Hey everyone,
Hoping someone here can help me figure this out. My graphics card has started acting weird over the past week or so. I’ll be in the middle of a game and the screen either freezes for a second or goes black for a moment before coming back on. Sometimes I also notice weird flickering or artifacts, like small colored dots or lines, especially in games that push the card harder.
Temps seem fine when I check them, nothing crazy high, so I don’t think it’s overheating. I already tried updating the drivers and even rolled back to an older version just to test, but the issue is still happening. Cables all seem properly connected too, so I’m a bit stuck.
Not sure if this points to the card slowly dying, a power supply issue, or something else entirely. I actually bought this card secondhand off ebay a couple years back, so now I’m second-guessing whether I just got unlucky with a used unit.
In the meantime I’ve been browsing around to see what a replacement would cost.
Has anyone run into something similar? Any steps I should try before thinking about a replacement?
Thanks in advance.
