Graphics Corruption, Hardware or Software issue?

Hey guys,

for a few months now I've noticed that in games sometimes I will see flickering textures/shadows and occasionally artifacts, however not always, infact most of the time it's fine.

Here's two videos I made today that shows the problem:

Hawken: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTKqOBL0gHg&feature=youtu.be

As you can see, the game froze (which is a known issue in this game) but before the game froze I was getting some crazy flickering and artifacts but after I ctrl+alt+deleted the game started responding again and there were no graphical glitches.

Grid 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=grlOSks1TZs&feature=youtu.be

No crash or freeze, but flickering textures...

Haven't tried any other games for awhile but I've noticed it in TR aswell.

Cards are 2x 7950's at stock, watercooled. Temps reach high 40's when gaming.
PSU is a seasonic platinum 860W
On the 14.4 drivers but I've also tried the 14.3 drivers.

Any thoughts?

Cheers.
