Black lines in some games... anyone else experiencing this?

I recently got an RTX 2060 from a friend, but I’ve been having this weird issue with black lines or glitches in some games. It doesn’t happen in all of them, which is super puzzling. Anyone else tried playing with this card? Any ideas on what’s going on?

Oh man, I had a similar issue with my graphics card! Have you checked if your drivers are up to date?

Yeah, I updated them recently. Still having the same problems tho.

Sounds like a classic case of overheating. Have you monitored your GPU temps while gaming?

I haven’t yet. What temp should I be looking for?

Ideally under 80°C. If it’s higher, you might need to clean your fans or improve airflow.

I read somewhere that certain games can have issues with specific cards. Like, it could be the game engine too.

Wait, what do you mean by game engine? Is that a big deal?

Yeah, some games just don’t play nice with certain graphics cards. It might not even be your card’s fault.

Have you tried lowering the graphics settings? Sometimes that helps fix weird glitches.

I’ll give that a shot! Thanks for the tip!

Just a thought, but have you checked your monitor connection? A loose cable can cause screen issues too.

Good point, I’ll inspect the cables. Thanks!
