What is this on my new 2080ti?

[Max_Payne]

Came today, not sure what this is... artifacting? I updated driver

see pic red lines

PSU brand/model? (and rest of spec)

Do you see the anomaly as the system boots up i.e. before windows applies drivers?

Are they there all the time within Windows or do they appear over time during useage?

Have you plugged in two independent leads into the card?

Card temps?

They do seem to be forming on the horizon. :/

 

[tamzzy]

Indeed

Does look a bit space invadery sadly

I've seen similar on a monitor of mine with a poor connection (An older monitor, so probably dry joints). Have you got a spare monitor to test? Have you tried jiggling the cable/connection?

Welcome to the state of contemporary flagship GPUs

Hope it’s not, but looks like space invaders are coming.

Try a different DP cable
Try HDMI
Try a different monitor

I expect it to at least work for a bit lol

Hey guys, I fixed it! It was the hdmi cable, I switched it with another and everything fine. doh

Thanks for your help everyone.

 

[Apone70]

At least it wasn't the GPU

 

[Double07]

Phew, it's always nice when the cheapo solution if the right one, you know rather than the £1000+ top of the line thing that has been known to recreate the 70s arcade feel with gusto.

Also had the same with a HDMI cable. Reseating it a few times did the trick, not necessarily faulty just looser than another I tried.

That sort of artifacting I've seen from a bad cable/connect but not seen that since DVI was mainstream

My first 2080ti has issues with game crashes and screen flickering right out of the box

 

[Apone70]

That's shocking. What model was it?

Seems to be getting common again, particular with budget cables. The increases in both resolution and frequency is pushing bandwidths right up to the point there’s data corruption.

That's shocking.
