Recently bought an RX 6600 Eagle as per this forum's recommendations
Performs phenomenally for what I need it to, but it seems to have issues
Since day 2-3 of buying it, I noticed strange occasional white screen flicker fits in games, which I brushed off as just some small driver issue
Then "AMDServ.exe" started throwing frequent errors about out-of-bounds memory access, and games started crashing only to be followed by AMD's Adrenalin software reporting driver crashes
Today it it started artifacting, which affected not just the game (Artifacting visible outside the game, individual frames seem to be dropped sometimes creating some sort of laggy input effect)
I thought it had something to do with my RAM overclock (3400 on otherwise 3000 rated vengeance LPX DIMMs) but running Memtest86 for a bit, there were no issues shown, but low and behold, the GPU artifacted even there. Restarting seems to get rid of the issue, but I'm not sure if it'll do so for long.
What should I do? Should I contact the store I bought it from (I have 3 years of warranty) or AMD?
