its dead huh.... or on its way... get artifacting in WoW too... ive taken it out... cleaned out the stock fan and everything even added some other fans around it to blow away the heat....
 
Have you changed drivers recently too? I've had some weird things happen like that due to drivers.
 
cleaned the contacts already... that didnt help... it does those lines in video too.. not overclocked... stock since i got it... and ive done 2 or 3 different drivers
 
Looks like it maybe overheating, try getting a 3rd party HSF, like a zalman vf700 or a vga silencer.

Does it start artifacting right away, or just after you've been playing games for a while?
 
when i go in to DOD:S right away... but if i go in to wow or another games its ok for a bit...
 
sorry double post.....

EDIT... to make the double post use full.... it seems when i turn on AA it does that... at all AA setting from 2x to 6x... i turned them off and it looks fine?? what does that mean... oh i had the latest ATI drivers got rid of those and am trying to omega ones...
