Hello,

I'm experiencing some weird issues with this hard, for once, i tought even that this card was completely dead. While playing games, watching youtube videos or just randomly browsing desktop i get full-on screen artifacts and green lines, or white lines, or white screen.. while in game this goes over after like 30 seconds.. by naturally browsing restart's the only cure.
Yesterday i uninstalled new drivers and got myself 15.8 driver. Everything seemed to be fine again until today. Same symptoms... In safe mode or when booting i never have this issue.

What should i do, i'm not ready yet to throw this out of window... maybe a clean install of windows 10 would fix something? Has anyone ever had someting like this? Oh, forgot to mention that warranty is over by 1 year.
