So i got this new PC and monitor about 2 weeks ago, it kicks lots of *** but i have a problem, the screen flickers in and out from regular color to a tint of magenta, if anyone knows what the problem could be, please let me know.
Some suspicions:
1. A bad\loose Monitor->Computer cable
2. My 3D card is way bigger(physically) than the one that came in it, maybe it is loose or touching something else that may fuzz up some circuitry
3.Possible power issues
