Weird computer problem

[Genocidal[v2]]

Having a weird problem, not sure if my monitor is dying or maybe it's my videocard.

I was playing both BF2 and WoW and they would both lock up for about 5 seconds while playing, and then run fine.

Yesterday while playing BF2 the sides of the screen kept pushing in and out really fast and just shaking like it was having a seizure. I smelled something burning, liker rubber, and turned off the pc but didn't see any smoke or anything noticable.

Every so often now the screen starts shaking back and forth, regardless of what resolution and refresh rate I have.

The monitor is a viewsonic P95f+ and the video card is a BFG 6800U with forceware drivers 71.89. A friend of mine said it might be the drivers so I updated to the latest ones, 77.72, and that just made the problem worse.

I ran a memtest, memory isn't the problem.

Anyone have what could be causing this?

HEAT perhaps? What kind of ambient (case/room), cpu, and gpu temps do you have?

What cpu, mobo, psu, and case do you have? How many fans of what diameter do you have?

Well I found out where the burning smell is coming from, inside the monitor. I'm guessing the tube is burnt out? Was kinda hoping it was the videocard dying, at least that has a lifetime warranty
