Hello and welcome to PC Help Forum.

Go to device manager and roll back the driver.

A bad driver install could be causing this.

Right click on my computer,scroll to properties and open.
Click on hardware tab then on device manager.
Scroll to your graphics card and right click on it and roll back driver.

However I have a feeling your monitor cable or connection maybe the problem.

If you slightly tap your PC desk or tower does this problem occure?

If you are using a PCI graphic card have you turned off onboard GPU in Bios?As conflicts can occure.

Make sure it is seated correctly.

And all pins are not loose or damaged.

Its been sugested by DarkLord that you should open up PC and clean inside get rid of all the dust in there,that this could be a over heating issue.Check your fans are running correctly when PC is powered on and your case is open.

Check your GPU is the fan working?

Clean the dust

Make sure to take a brush and get all the dust in the fans and heatsinks. Take a vacuum cleaner if you want, or compressed air
