Definately looks like GPU problem, could be monitor aswell. Test out that GPU with same port on a different monitor (TV or something). If same red dots persists, then its for sure the GPU.

Seems it was the shitty DVI->HDMI cable that came with this new Asus monitor.
Time to bitch and moan at them.

yeah had this on my old screen too. Was simply a bad cable, nothing else.

@Breezer_ good job on saying "definitely the gpu" lol. Great advice there. Nice to help, but saying it had to be the gpu or monitor, without having a clue ... not much help Smile
