Hello, I'm reaching out to get help diagnosing a graphics issue I'm having with my home built pc. Here are the specs:
3.20 gigahertz Intel Core i5-3470
ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. SABERTOOTH Z77 Rev 1.xx
Diamond 7970PES3GDD Double Black Diamond Overclocked Radeon HD 7970 3GB 384-bit GDDR5 PCI Express
I'm experiencing thin flickering black horizontal lines and graininess, it comes and goes, but has been happening for longer spans of time recently. I tried removing the video card and running the machine off of the cpu's internal graphics, the computer boots but the display very quickly cuts out and the monitor displays 'no input'. Is this a video card issue? My warranty on the video card is still good, I could have it replaced or serviced by diamond. Or is the motherboard going, or the cpu? I don't have another card to use to check if it's just the card, I was hoping to use my onboard graphics while having the card serviced. But now that I see the Intel® HD Graphics 2500 aren't working, I'm not sure exactly what the problem is. Thoughts?
