You should seek your GPU related consumer rights.

Yes. Unfortunately. The number of graphics glitches and crashes will increase as you continue to use your GPU. If your GPU is under warranty, it will be correct to seek your consumer rights.

Try a different DP or HDMI cable. If the result does not change, the GPU is most likely faulty.

You're welcome. If you are not doing GPU-OC and you are not making changes with WattMan settings, similar errors indicate that the GPU is faulty. Similar situations may occur if the HDMI or the DP cable is not of sufficient quality. Similar errors can happen if the GPU port (PCI express port) is not clean. But these are very exceptional cases. So the screenshot you are sharing is definitely a hardware GPU error.
Goodbye...
