I'm a bit iffy on it, but I am pretty sure I will need to RMA the video card.

Anyways, every 40-50 minutes the screen blanks. If I am running a graphics-heavy program then it drops down to 30 roughly. I've checked temps, they are quite cool. I have the comp running in my basement (in Canada) and currently with an open case. That said, I have a couple fans working full time on moving air around the card.

I've had some lock ups before, and when I tried to OC she got really nasty - didnt go past 500core and 500mem, and would crash at virtually any OC after a few hours of use. Really feels like I've got a lemon - I like ATI, but now I am wishing I had gone with a 6800GT this round. I know a bad experience shouldnt be used to judge a whole line, but its been a quite a hassle with this card.

Opinions? Next week I am pretty sure I am going to RMA it, unless somebody can pinpoint something. Its a clean install right to 4.11, and only a few months old. I havent had troubles with any other aspects of the pc, and I can provide specs if need be.
