Hi All,


Owned a pre-built system by OCUK for just over a year now, but over the last couple of weeks have started to have the following issue occur in just about any game ive tried.

Being not very technical, I can only describe the error as Anti-Aliasing being "off" in everything that I try - All my edges when moving appear as a block of unusual colors as opposed to the solid lines colors they should appear as - I haven't been able to get a screenshot but did do an iPhone picture of screen to try and demonstrate my problem.

Spec is:
Intel Core i3 2100 3.10GHz DDR3 MMO Dual Core
GeForce GTX550ti
8Gb Ram
Windows 7 Home Pre.
HP 24" Monitor 1920X1200

Whilst I acknowledge this is not the most powerful system in the world, it has up until now been working absolutely fine, which Is why I am hoping the answers won't come in the form of "buy a new PC!", but any suggestions welcome as bit annoyed this has happened only a year into owning PC.
 
Have you tested a different display connection, or even a different monitor? It may not be a GPU issue from the looks of things. I would guess it's a poor connection to the monitor, or the monitor is on it's way out.
 
I get those washed out colours and perticularly on edges like that when I have 16 bit colours instead of 32 ( like on gta San Andreas)
