So i have a new built pc and this issue only happens when the gpu is using acceleration and when theres a dark scene in a game

Here is a video of what i mean. I had to make a replica of it because it won't record on any camcorder i have in the house. This is the best interpretation i could get (no it's not that flashy) (this also happens in all games)

Oh and i'm using a VGA to DVI-I adapter on my card. Could that cause those strange lines? AMD Catalyst detects this LED monitor as a CRT. When windows installs the drivers for this monitor the gradients look really weird (see screenshot below). So i reverted back the monitor drivers and they look normal now.

Honestly i don't know if i should RMA the card or get a DVI-DVI cable :S
