I'm not sure if it's the graphics card or the motherboard but I get

blue stripes like that or just the screen goes black and I must force restart the PC, which shouldn't happen considering it's 3 days old.

Drivers seem to be updated

Any ideas what the problem might be? Some other drivers that I know not of aren't updated? Bad cable connection inside the PC?

Usually that screen is a sign of bad overclock/bad GPU. most likely bad GPU since its 3days old and you probably haven't overclocked it.

RMA the GPU or send the computer back and get a replacement.
