Hi everyone, I just finished building my new rig and I'm having display issues when booting for the first time.
Specs:
Gigabyte GA-H87M-D3H
EVGA GeForce GTX 660. 02G-P4-2662-KR
Intel Core i5-4430
Kingston HyperX Blu 8GB (1x8 GB Module) 1600MHz
Antec VP-450 450 Watt

Here's some pics of what I'm seeing: http://s1287.photobucket.com/user/grimm1152/library/com...
display looks that way constantly from the splash screen, in the bios screen, and when windows starts installing (though I haven't let it install yet as I want to figure this out first). Thanks so much guys! and lemme know if you need more/better pics.

It is very likely that is the Card's VRAM error. If you are able to get to your desktop, try to update your Drivers.

Also, did you have the speakers that you plug in to your board to test it? How many beeps did you hear?

I'm getting a single beep on boot, so thats fine. i had considered it could be the drivers but I wasn't sure. I could install windows, and then update the drivers, i just didn't want to do that yet if I have replace the card. If you think that may fix the problem though its worth a shot. thanks again

I can never be too sure, you should download HWmonitor to see if there is the correct amount of power going to the card.
