Is my GPU, 2080S, dead

Had my 2080 S since August 2020 and hasn't missed a beat. Haven't overclocked and left it as stock however, yesterday whilst playing assassins creed and Cold War the graphics went haywire which I believe to be artifacting as you can see from the link below. I have reinstalled drivers, reinstalled windows, reseated the GPU, changed graphic settings and changed power cables to no avail. I benchmarked it in Superposition and at 4Gb VRAM no issues, at 6Gb VRAM same graphical issues. Is this a now dodgy GPU or could this be an issue outside of the GPU?

Any help on this would be appreciated. Also, I have asked for a replacement from PC specialist and notice they no longer sell the 2080 S which worries me a great deal unless they keep stock back for this reason!

So I had just reset it but just tried my friends 1080 and games worked absolutely fine, so it's definitely my GPU. Just worried about what PC specialist may say tomorrow as I doubt they have any 2080 S in stock for a replacement after Nvidia have decided to stop producing them!
