Hello Friends..
Need your help

Config is in my signature..
From last to last week, display used to flicker. It happens once in a while.. not so frequently. and come back normal after few seconds of flickering.
Last week, display died, sometime it shows very distorted image otherwise nothing.

I replaced my Graphic Card GTX 460 AMP with GTX 560 through Zotac RMA. But the problem still persists.
Please help to resolve this issue.

Some time dust in RAM slot or graphics slow (connecting pins) create this type of issue..

Use eraser to slowly rub and clean the RAM and grfx cards pins. Use soft paint brushes to clean the inside connecting pins of the slots, RAM and PCI-E :)

May be that can solve the issue :)

1. RMA the PSU,
If the problem persist, RMA the motherboard.
