Hi,
I have had the strangest issues with my computer and I simply don’t know how to amend it. This issue arises when I play only certain games however it comes with several unexplainable side effects.
So far I’ve experienced it on games such as Terraria and League of Legends and not the plethora of other video games that are way more demanding than it such as Doom, Dark Souls III etc.
What happens is that after playing for a short time on those games, my computer will display flickering lines across the screen and then flicker uncontrollably to the point that it the whole image on the screen looks like a glitch. The pc then distorts colours and even the aspect ratio until a few moments later where it will crash my whole computer.
After those times, I would restart my computer, change some settings and try again, what I don’t understand is that the issue that persists is so inconsistent with varying effects. It could flicker 5 minutes in or 5 hours in during the game.
I’ve tried updating my display drivers, graphics card drivers and updating windows to no avail.
My pc also has been emitting a noise from inside almost like a buzz which hasn’t occurred before, my competence is usually quiet anyway unless the fans are on full speed.
The pc now doesn’t want to turn on, by that I mean once you push the switch, it will randomly turn off by the time it gets to or just after the windows logo.
Could anyone recommend me what parts I should look for that may be faulty in some way? I’m only confused about the fact that these types of games, which are one of the least demanding games I have in my library are causing these issues. Perhaps it may be issue with those games.
As a side note; I’ve been browsing on a different forum and one user briefly mentioned that a certain GPU unit that is required for those types of games and not the other is faulty and that is what is causing the issue.
Thank you for your time.
