What causes the strange lines in Chrome on a Macbook Pro

facebookgoogle-chrome

From time to time I get strange colorful lines on my screen in Chrome. It only effects certain websites. I tried disabling "Hardware acceleration" in the settings but that didn't seem to help. What is the cause?

Here is a Facebook screen

And a Stackexchange screen. Note it only affects the top bar.

If it was only happening in Chrome, I would have suggested uninstalling and reinstalling Chrome. I would have also suggested that you use Safari and see if you get the same issues.

Not sure how the PRAM would affect this 1 program and not others. If you set any kinds of flags in Chrome(link works in chrome only) then I would hit the Reset All on the flags page and restart the browser.
