Bonjour / Hello
I have an issue with shades in a MMORPG game. When approaching other characters or NPC characters, there is usually some shades flickering around them. After some 1-2 seconds everything settles down and looks normal.
Someone in the game suggested it is a problem with my RAM. Is this likely to be true? I think they said main RAM, but could it be the video card memory instead?
It is an Asus ROG G750JZ from ca 2015.
I have no such issues when I stream video content, or using Word or email etc.
Intel Core i7-4710HQ
Nvidia GeForce GTX 880M
16 GB RAM (I believe it is 4x4 GB)
256 GB SSD
Windows 10 Pro 64-bit
I updated the drivers some years ago. This is old hardware and it is not supported anymore. I can't say when the problem occurred for the first time, but I have had it a few years.
I have googled for symptoms of bad RAM, and I don't see graphic issues listed.
The laptop have another problem too, probably unrelated to the graphical issue so I'll not go in detail on it in this topic, unless you think they are related. The other problem is that occasionally, the laptop shuts itself down abruptly with no warning. It happens when the PC is hot and it happens when the PC i cold. Seems totally random and happens about 1-2 times a month. It is sudden like if it was a power outage. The battery died so I don't have it installed since many years ago.
