I purchased a Hp omen 870-224 3 years ago and a couple of months ago. I started getting weird lines when gaming and I am getting low fps in all games. For example, when I am playing American Truck simulator crosswalk line, a line appears and moves when I move the camera. I get 90-60 fps in all Epic settings in Fortnite. I upgraded my 500w hp power supply to a Corsair 650 w 80 plus bronze to try to fix this issue. I also upgraded my GTX 1070 and got a Gigabyte 2070 couple of days ago and it didn't fix the problem. I tried changing my display port cables too and used different monitors, so it isn't a monitor issue.

I reviewed your post and I understand that you are facing issues with the display on your computer.
Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.
Do you get these lines when you are not playing games?
Meanwhile, I recommend you update the BIOS from the below link and check if it helps.

If you continue facing the issue, perform a reset on the computer following the steps in the below article.

Hey, Fossette I tried the bios update it didn't help it. I'm also getting very low fps in Fortnite especially It drops to 60 on all low sometimes and stutters a lot. I found a fix to the line issue in Fortnite if I put the Antialiasing to epic it disappears. I reinstalled my GPU drivers it didn't help. I only get these lines when I'm gaming. I reset my PC a couple of months ago when I first got this issue that didn't help.
Thanks for the help,
