    Default Monitor help...

    Ok was starting to notice the colors on my monitor change randomly, they would just slightly go a tinge of green then go back to normal. Eliminating the cheapest thing first I changed the cable. Success!

    It hasnt changed color yet. However in a possibly unrelated matter I am noticing that sometimes straight lines, words etc tend to go a little wobbly/wavey. Dunno if this is a setting ive mucked with, sign that my video card/monitor is on its way out?

    Is it a CRT monitor?

    If its a CRT then its a good sign that its the monitor on its way out.
    If its LCD or LED then its the graphics card.

    Could also be vibration from the hard drive, cpu fan or power supply.

    Yeah its a LCD. Its very periodical. The case is huge, the only thing near the VGA is the PSU. Meh was gonna replace the VGA soon anyway.

    It is A LOT more noticeable, whilst playing games and shortly after.
