Already made a thread about this problem in the graphics card section but not getting anywhere really and the only thing I can't rule out is the motherboard and I'm just curious if this could be the mother board causing the problems. Glitches appear as white lines in windows and missing textures in game. Glitches generally build up over time and result in a driver crash and/or BSOD. Problems started after I installed a new 7850 in place of my 5670. Could the 7850 have damaged the motherboard? It is a bit of an odd board apparantly, old chipsets and things I don't fully understand. I dont see what I could've done to damage it but I'm not ruling it out. Have tested CPU, RAM, PSU and both GPUs and I'm yet to find the issue. Clean installs of windows haven't fixed it either although using windows vga driver did seem to stop the crashes but the system ran fine before putting that 7850 in and hasn't been normal since even when I've put the 5670 back in and done a format and clean windows install. Any help or input would be appreciated. Thanks.
