Hey Guys,

Was wondering if any of you could help me?

Lately I have been booting my computer in the morning only to be welcomed by a garbled screen that continues to make funny shapes until it boots into windows. The kind of screen you might get if you had a failed overclock. However I am running at stock clocks, which made me think maybe it was something to do with my PSU.

Today however, I ran MSI Kombustor on the GPU burn in settings and instantly had a messed up screen. The computer recovered but the display driver had stopped working and I was back to prehistoric screen resolutions.

Is it time for me to cash out for a new GPU or can anyone give me any suggestions?

Sorry if this is posted in the wrong area, I thought that seeing as it might be a GPU problem I would put it here.

My Rig: Crosshair V, Phenom 955BE (cooled by H50), 8GB vengeance, Corsair tx650, MSI 6950 Twin Frozr III Power edition/OC, Crucial M4 120GB (boot)
 
RMA surely? have I had a weird moment and lost time but was this card released that long ago that it would be outwith warranty?
