So i use this realy bad monitor
''1280x1024'' and its tearing ( goes dark every half a second ) so what i need to know is this monitor who is causing the lagging ? Thank you for reading
 
Solution
Your psu is pretty terrible and is likely the problem. I'm not even sure your psu offers enough amps on the +12v to even fully run a 970.

Bottom line, upgrade your psu.
