TV and monitor don't use the same signal decoder stuff.
If your TV is old or basic, it is the sort of issues encountered (you can try to change the frequencies or the color area).
Test with a real monitor and problems will disapear :-).

I had these fragments on monitor, not on TV, when I overclocked too much my cards.

I was going to say that I have seen these artifacts as well when too much overclocking has been applied.

OP, if you cards are prone to crashing I would back down the overclock just a bit, especially memory. If not and you can run for days on end with no problems other than the artifact, than I wouldn't worry about it too much and just soldier on.

This used to happen to my RX cards when i overclocked them too much, as suggested you should probably decrease your overclocking and try it out again.

thanks for your replies guys,

well yes my gtx 1070 turbo are overclocked i have 7 cards and i do about 218/220  the rig is rock steady never fail, its a true  set and forget.
its just when i update it i have this annoying screen, no biggy but i guess i'm a perfectionist  ;D.
Im asking you guys because i have another rig with the exact same setting (cloned software and hardware) and i have the issue only with this particular machine.
