When we turn on the PC, we hope that it works normally, both what the team itself as the monitor is. Although in 99% of the time it is so, it is possible that, at some point, the team does not work as the first day, either in terms of performance or in him Graphic section.
If when you turn on the equipment, we see how unwanted elements are shown on the PC screen, it means that we have a problem, a problem that can be related to the team’s graph or the monitor itself.
The easiest and quick way to get out of doubt is to connect the PC to another monitor. If the elements that distort the image are no longer shown, it means that the time has come to replace the monitor with a new one since it has fulfilled its life cycle. But, if the problem continues we have a problem that we will talk about next.
What are the artifacts of a graphics
If we talk about graphic artifacts, we talk about an element that is shown overlapping in the image which shows our PC, regardless of which application or game we are using. These elements are static and distributed throughout the screen. Sometimes, they may appear and disappear randomly.
Why are they shown
The problems of artifacts on screen are not something new and, unfortunately, they arrive accompanying us many years. In fact, the first problems appeared with the launch to the series RTX 20 of Nvidia with Turing architecture.
Various sources suggest that it is due to a problem related to the data that the graph is not able to process correctly. It is important to confuse artifacts on screen with stripes either Colored pointssince the reason and the solution to these problems is different.
How to solve them
Not all visualization problems of a graph are directly related to it. If, for example, colored lines are shown or the image is not shown correctly, it means that we have a problem with the wire (defective or is receiving the interference of environment elements) or with the port to which it is connected.
But, if it is about artifacts as we have described above, this problem does not have a simple solution. If the graph has Overclockthis is the first thing we must deactivate to check if this is the problem that is affecting its operation. Calibrating the screen will not serve to solve the problem in case you are wondering.
If not, it never hurts, restart the graph so that it eliminates the configuration that you are using and re -function as if we just installed it in the equipment. To perform this process, all we must do is use the key combination Windows + Ctrl + Capital + B.
At that time, the PC screen will flash for a few seconds. Once we have restarted the graph, the artifacts that were on the screen should have disappeared. But, if not, the graph is not overclocked, it means that it has fulfilled its useful life cycle and we must buy a new one, but not before ensuring if still in guarantee, a guarantee that in Europe is 3 years since 2022 .
