Built a new pc (only salvaged from my old build: the psu and the old lcd monitor)

The problem is when i have a game running the screen flickers.. its playable but annoying.
This does not happend when a game is not running

Why ? Is it because im using a old VGA cable?
>>
yeah it sounds like an issue with your video cable. dont know why it would only happen during gaming but give it a try. a $5 fix is better than a $200 one.

Could the grafics card be dead ?

maybe, although if you havent been using it that intensively i dont see it being likely. try using the integrated graphics for something and see if the blinking stops.

Why the hell would you use vga with a 980ti?

Use HDMI, display port, or DVI.

my old monitor only has vga connector
and im using a dvi to vga converter since the 980 TI dont support vga

Why the hell would you build that level of a computer when you don't even have a monitor that can take dvi or hdmi? If you're gonna spend that much you might as well get a half decent monitor.

That makes zero sense.
