Is it possible for GPU to artifact through hdmi only ?

matpc · Friday at 3:17 AM

Hello

I´ve had my tv (samsung bu8000) for about a year and half and my 4070 ( about 6 months old) but i just had a instance yesterday where my tv showed some pink artifacts then it covered the whole screen

It lasted about 30 seconds before going to normal again

I was gaming on the TV (4K resolution) , closed the game and then moved the pc video from tv to monitor and this happened

The artifacts remained on the tv even when i´ve passed the video from tv to monitor

it showed the samsung circle searching for signal while the artifacts remained in the screen

This image is not mine but it is relatable : https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/vd849x
This never happened while gaming ( i tried elden ring 4k max settings)

I also game on my monitor ( dp cable) and this never happened)

I´ve checked samsung service menu and found no significant errors

Is my gpu or tv damaged ?
I´m wondering if i should rma my 4070 ?
thanks

I had an issue with pink or green flashing fullscreen artifacts on an lg CX oled. I tested multiple gpus and it happened very rarely on ALL of them at 4k@60hz and 4K@120hz. It was the hdmi cable in my case. While it was an hdmi 2.1 cable, it only supported 32gbps. I bought a 48gbps hdmi 2.1 cable and the problem disappeared.

Pretty sure problem is the tv. Seems like all the tv in my house are defective with lines running through them.

quality of panels is pretty shit lately

just checked right now my cable is a 2.0 version ( and it is long )

i also game on my monitor and never saw such problem but the connection is display port

my gpu is a 4070 gigabyte windforce ( never had crashes or similar stuff on monitor)

i play elden ring at 4k 60hz in the tv

do you guys know about service menu? i managed to enter it and i´m wondering if it can tell the issues the tv has ?

Would lg be more durable than samsung ?

thanks

also it is possible that the same 2.0 version hdmi cable can input lower bandwidth? just checked and mine is 18gbs , is it enough for 4k 60hz?

Play at a lower resolution to see if it is the HDMI cable.
I'd suspect that before any major component.

But I'm not seeing this with monitors. But, LCD monitors before 2022 or later in 2021, were more likely to have bad pixels. Suspiciously the same period as the load of faulty 870 Evo SSDs!

I´ve played 2 hours right now and worked as intended but i don´t know

weird thing that my was completely pink while i swapped videos to monitor only

can artifacts appear this rare ?

thanks

you can give a shot a make custom resolution profile different/lower clocks.

i don´t know if it is worth rmaing , i doubt gigabyte will test this extensively

If you do, make precise steps and multiple videos of it, so they cannot refute the claim so easily.

It is the TV IMHO...
