Clean the contacts? Kind of a last resort but worth a try.

if its overclocked try backing off it a little

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...
