Hello my PC is running into an issue where it gets a weird checkerboard pattern on the display but only while watching YouTube. I just got off a 4ish hour gaming session with no issues but 2mins into a YouTube video it happened. Its not the first time it happened and its quite annoying because I usually have to hard resets it because when the white screen happens it also frezes my sytem. I'mf anyone has any clues on how to fix, please help. Thanks!
