Awesome glad you got it figured out.

However using DDU SHOULD have reset the NCP. :D
I'll have to make sure I clarify that for...

My system
Gigabyte Ax370-Gaming K7
Ryzen5 1500x 3.5Ghz
Corsair Vengance 16gb DDr4 2600mhz
Corsair Cx-750 PSu
EVGA 1070Ti FTW2
Windows 10 (On Kingston SSD Now 120 gb)

It Seems to be Working ok on windowed/Fullscreen But on normal Fullscreen basically all the screen goes green with the Horizontal lines Rushing up and down. so far i tested
Two Games. Ark Survival Evolved and Styx Shards of darkness both have the same issue again Normal Fullscreen mode only. Dont seem to have much fps trouble...

Make sure everything is seated properly, including cables.

Try using DDU to uninstall the drivers then reinstall the latest ones.

If that doesn't fix it you will need to try to remove/lower the OC on the card. Unfortunately this seems to be somewhat of a common issue with EVGA FTW2 cards.

Well Clean Re instaling The drivers don't seem to work because i did that earlier. i'm not really sure how to turn down the clock speeds... bu the card is seated properly
.. Do i have to worry about the card being damaged or faulty.?. I Really want no RMA !

Unless you can live with the lines, then yes you have to worry if the card is faulty. If you have to downclock I would RMA or get your money back. It's not reaching advertised speeds stable.

But you have to downclock to stock settings to make sure that's what it is.

I have solved the issue... i dug around in the NCP Under video settings i changed the colour settings to use NVidia settings Instead of Video Player settings. And under Image settings i changed the Edge Enhancement to use Nvidia Settings. After that The Fullscreen Mode Worked .. :D Thank goodness it was just a small software issue.

Artifacts are ALWAYS either the OC or NCP (or the card is dying, which will not be an issue on a brand new card) lol. :)
