This is about a 2 year old card.

Recently I've been getting random colored pixels that look like dead pixels all over my screen.

If I move my browser around I'll get a string of pixels in the direction I move my browser.

There are also times when my computer will freeze up when playing videos and it crashes when playing Bioshock.

In certain games like Fifa or when running a Quicktime movie I'll get these large black triangles that flicker all over the window.

I've tried different drivers, but I'm not sure if there is a software solution or whether the gpu is fried.

UPDATE 1***

Jeff from BFG contacted me and was really cool about the whole thing. He offered to crossship another card, and was really on top of it. I'm very pleased and blown away with how quick and responsive the RMA process was. I will update again when I receive the card.

UPDATE 2***

Just received a brand spankin' new BFG 8800 GTS OC today! It even came with the T-shirt! Overall I'm very pleased with BFG and Jeff's support.
 
Is this a launch card 7900GT. Even though its 2 years late, these cards had this same exact problem at launch. Sounds like the card is just bad.
 
If I remember correctly, I didn't buy this card when it launched. At least a few good months after.
 
I had the exact same problems with my BFG 7900GT a couple of months ago. I RMA'd it and haven't had any problems since :) (they sent back a 7950GT)
