    WTF is going on with my computer?

    Right, so this has been an issue before and about a week ago it stopped so I didnt think more of it, all of a sudden this happened & its about 2-3 times today this has happened.

    I decided to make a video of it on my phone because I have no idea how to explain what is going on, could someone give me some insight on what it is?

    When was the last time you updated the drivers? Try rolling them back if you're using the latest.

    I've had things like this occur before but it happened to be issues with my HDD/Ram and not my GFX card. But never as bad as it seems in your case.

    I searched around Google and the problem seems to be called "windows leaving trail".

    I remember having a similar problem (which was not as extreme) about 10 years ago on a brand new PC. Installing the latest drivers fixed it. But what you've described seems to be an inconsistent occurrence, so it could be something hardware related - I'd do more research.

    Updated my Graphic card a second ago, last version I had was 4 months old, hopefully it will help, been kinda sloppy with updates

    Might be a good time tonight to leave your computer running memtest86 and see if there's any errors. System ram could be bad.

    Have you overclocked? overclocking can cause cards to crash
