Hi, I don't know if this is the right place to ask , but seeing the answer might mean I have to build a new one , I thought it might be appropriate.

Can someone please tell me what component could be causing this glitch on my system. Thanks to eskom I either get this or a random reboot or just a freeze.

Start with the monitor’s cables. Are you using DP or HDMI? Get a spare from someone so you can test it to rule it out completely.
 
Thanks,I am using hdmi , I actually had to take it out of the the graphics card and plug it in the motherboard. Gpu for some reason was dead the other day.

Looks like the refresh rate on the monitor is not matched to the GPU's refresh rate?

Is the monitor also doing that when you go into the BIOS?

Nah, not a screen tearing issue. Would be visible horizontal lines on the screen. The video looks like there’s a pin that’s cooked or something.

Lots of cheap gpus, just no cheap cpus to back it up :(

I want some cheap 5800x3d :(

Not anytime soon...consumers are giving AM5 the finger according to Hardware Unboxed i.e. people would rather upgrade their AM4 rigs like you're doing.

I think the price of the 5800x3d isn't going to change till it goes out of stock forever one day - it's not a volume model like a 5600x. No incentive to change the price if more people on AM4 are looking to grab one than AMD are making.

Grab it if you're going to get it.
 
Placeholder prices, the same way they do with every single release of new tech ever since the dawn of time. I believe even Noah listed prices of animal meat at R44,000/kg to his passengers on the ark.

Means nothing.

EDIT:
My bad, I see these are the actual prices. WTFFM.

So the Crucial SSD had a failed controller, Wootware didn't have stock apparently, but they replacing it with a Mushkin, I've not had an issue with a Mushkin before so will see.

Thanks and sorry for only replying now. I actually don't think it is a hdmi issue ,don't think my hdmi can restart my pc.

"So the video is after you’ve plugged it into the onboard graphics?"

Yes the video is when plugged in to on-board graphics ie motherboard.

The photo is of what it did now .
