So what if the HDMI port is broken? Would the mother board have to be replaced?

I have a flickering problem. I play normally but sometimes the screen flickers and shows some green, and pink bars for like milliseconds. I've checked the connections, changed the ports, even the HDMI cable and the problem is still there. Any ideas? The GPU? The connector of the Wii U?
