I have a radeon r9 390 video card and a 6th gen i7 6700 processor.

And when I play 4k video over HDMI to my 55 in m-series visio and the quality is excellent.. But about every 5 seconds or so it garbles or skips.. Sometimes the bottom will get Snoopy or sometimes the whole screen will ghost pixelate

Am I missing a setting? My TV is hooked directly into the video card. The video is local and not streamed. Streaming 4k plays fine.

Only thing I can think is that its either A corrupted video or
A setting is off somewhere

Any help please

you are obviously watching 4k videos downscaled at 1080p. for native 4k support with your gpu you must use displayport. do you have fast enough storage?
