My screen currently looks gritty and is mostly green, it is also shifting in layers. I installed the new drivers after putting the new 1080 ti in but it still is green and gritty. Any help at all is greatly appreciated, sorry if I respond late and thank you in advanced if I personally forget to do so!

1. Did ya uninstall before taking out old card and installing new ? If not, uninstall all things nVidia, clean registry of all nVidia entries, reboot and install anew.

2. Is PSU beefy enough and sufficient quality for the upgrade ?

https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/products/10series/geforce-gtx-1080-ti/

Thermal and Power Specs:
91 = Maximum GPU Temperature (in C)
250W = Graphics Card Power (W)
600 W = Recommended System Power (W)
One 6-pin, One 8-pin = Supplementary Power Connectors
Click to expand...

if overclocking anything ya want more, not some Tis can pull well over 300 watts and that's before you open afterburner and raise the power limit by 50%.

3. Check that all monitor cables are tight, all screwed all the way in.

4. make sure both power cables to the card are all the way in and card is securely seated and 'clicked in".

1-3 are checked, but is there suppose to be an actual loud clicking sound or no? Because I just put it into the slot and didn't want to force it for risk of snapping it/breaking the connector/pins

Question from Elementalfury : "Just installed 1080 ti, gritty green screen issue help please"

So I just installed my new 1080 ti and already a huge issue has popped up. All the connections are fine, and before the drivers fixed themselves and the screen wasn't in the correct resolution (all the icons/task was huge) it was colored perfectly. But after the new drivers were downloaded it just bugged out and now its green and gritty like an old TV. Any help is greatly appreciated, sorry if I respond late and thank you in advanced if I personally forget to do so!

Also I forgot to mention that the coloring was fine until the resolution was put to normal (icons and taskbar are huge and the screen looks a little fuzzy).

Question from Elementalfury : "1080 ti gritty/green screen if I have a refresh rate higher than 60mhz"

So I factory reset my computer because I thought it was a driver issue and I screwed around with a couple settings and decided the fastest way was to factory reset. As soon as it reset, as I always do, I tried turning my refresh rate to 144mhz (through right clicking my desktop and nvidia control panel) my monitor was intended for. Problem is that with this new GPU I just installed that made me factory reset (Zotac 1080 ti AMP! Extreme), I cant change my refresh rate higher than 60mhz or I get this gritty/shifting/green screen issue. Does anyone have a fix for this so I can get the most out of the card/my monitor? Any help is greatly appreciated, sorry if I respond late and thank you in advanced if I personally forget to do so!
