My DVI Cable may have given up the ghost.
Sometimes, if left to sleep, the monitor would say "No Input Signal" and the only way to wake it would take the DVI Cable out of the monitor, then plug it back in.
Now the same thing happened, this time the old method hasn't helped. There's not even the "Device unplugged/plugged in" noise coming from the speakers, though it works for other devices like the mouse.
And turning the PC off and on again hasn't helped.
I could buy a new DVI cable and VGA backup after Uni (hence the sample picture) But is there something else that could be causing this?

It's unlikely yo be your DVI cable. If it was, the image would be consistently fucked.
It's either your graphics card or your monitor. I'd start with trying to connect a different computer to that monitor.

That
That doesn't sound good.
Could dust be an issue?

Probably not, but cleaning can't hurt.
If I had to guess, I'd be suspicious of the monitor itself. Still, test all three.

Only got one monitor, one PC.
If I have to send it end for repairs or something, may as well, I'm heading home for a month with laptop in tow.
It's just, a new DVI/VGA cable is the least expensive of my options of:
>Replace monitor
>Replace GPU
>Replace mobo

Do you have a TV or a console or a DVD player or anything else to test with?

Most I could do is ask one of my housemates if they have a double monitor they could lend to see what the issue is. Whether the monitor (Doubt) DVI cable (Hope) or PC (Worry)
