I have just built a new system and it works fine except for occasionaly the screen goes all funny, showing just one colour e.g pink or white. It is completely random when and which colour comes up.

Every now and then the screen will go to a random solid color or a solid color with black or gray vertical lines. This even happens with low graphics processing, usually idle. I have tried connecting a different monitor but the problem is still their.
So i thought maybe my psu is underpowered, but i couldn't find any definate requirements

i reckon its either deffective or my psu isnt up to scratch
