Hello everybody,
I've been having some weird things happening with my computer. First and upmost I would like to find out if it's a normal thing that my GPU clockspeed is flashing. It shows a number, goes blank, back to a number, back blank and so on.

You can clearly notice that the GPU mhz speed is now blank.
The other weird stuff :
What I did / tried :
So the questions :
I'm building a new computer with a new case, mobo, cpu and I'm planning to use this video card in that new system (AM5 system) - as you see, I'm using an AMD card on an INTEL system).
Kr,
Filip
I've been having some weird things happening with my computer. First and upmost I would like to find out if it's a normal thing that my GPU clockspeed is flashing. It shows a number, goes blank, back to a number, back blank and so on.

You can clearly notice that the GPU mhz speed is now blank.
The other weird stuff :
- My screen flashes on and off from time to time, and it will all of a sudden stop with that behaviour, to do it again after a while. Especially if my computer has been "idle" for a while
- I come back from doing something else, move my mouse to make the screen active again and it starts...
- The screen flickers; some parts of my screen move for a milisecond to the left, back to the right again. It keeps doing that for a while. During, the screen goes off and on again like above. It stops again after a while.
- When one of the above happens, and I try to type something in google, it types text on his own, sometimes it opens Office 365 (multiple login tabs at once)
- I noticed that my computer keeps doing that when I hit the G1 key that you can program; however, I never programmed it as such. using icue to remove everything does not even help...
- My computeri s pretty slow lately
- When I leave my sound on, I can hear the "disconnected" and "connected" sounds regularly while it has these issues : the mouse / keyboard keep disconnecting... or the system won't even react. I can't type, but the light on my keyboard is on...
What I did / tried :
- Did all updates
- Installed the latest driver (october 2024)
- I use a Display Port cable
- I did put it in the second port on my GPU card : did not help
- I replaced it with a HDMI cable : did not help
- Malwarebytes : I found malware, quarantained: did not help
So the questions :
- Is my AMD card faulty ?
- Can a system re-install fix this ?
- Is the "flashing" result on gpu speed in hwinfo something to be worried about ?
