I've been having a frustrating experience with my prebuilt PC that comes with an RTX 5060 Ti 16GB from Palit Infinity. Since I got it, I've been dealing with pixelated blocks appearing on my screen. I've tried a bunch of solutions, including using DDU for a clean driver install, but nothing seems to work. I read that sending it back to the manufacturer hasn't helped others, so I'd prefer to avoid that. The latest drivers mentioned fixing red and green flash corruption in browsers, but I still see issues not only in browsing but also when playing videos in VLC. Surprisingly, games look perfect, even if images on the web have decoding problems. If anyone has faced a similar issue or knows of any fixes, I would really appreciate your advice!

It sounds like you're dealing with a pretty common flaw in the RTX 50 series. Many users have reported that the VRAM can be faulty, leading to the visual issues you're encountering. I suggest considering a return if possible, as that could resolve the issue since it seems like standard troubleshooting hasn’t helped you much.
Exactly! In-game graphics can look sharp, but if you're only seeing problems in video playback, it might not be a VRAM issue. Have you tried tweaking any of the graphics settings in VLC or your browser?
I tried putting my VRAM under stress too, and couldn't replicate any problems, so I'm skeptical that it's a widespread VRAM fault. If your games run fine, wouldn't it make sense that the issue might be elsewhere?
