Hey everyone!
After installing a new RX550 card I noticed some weird artifacts appearing. Nothing too severe, just some random horizontal stripes, but noticeable nonetheless. The strangest thing is, they don’t appear in games or video or any other apps, only on desktop environment itself. Is it a problem with the graphics card itself, or with the driver, or maybe with the PCI slot (I have an ancient MB with PCI 2.0)
Would really appreciate your help!
