Hi guys its a long shot but i dont suppose anyone here has had this problem or seen a similiar problem before and might be able to help me.

I have just put together a pc for my friend with my old pc parts and when i load up wow in around 1-5 mins it does this to all the textures.

The setup is

Intel core2 3ghz
Gskill 2gb ram
Nvidia 8800gtx

Im thinking it either the memory/graphics, But the memory can run prime57 for hour and hour and everytime i run any graphics tests it can run them for hour aswell.

thanks for any help

**edit**

Took out noob comments from chat. sorry

Just about to try different driver.

I thought it was heat to begin with but it idles at around 60 and in wow its going up to 72. which seems ok right?

Also i should add just when it does this it flickers for a second and then its messed up.
 
lol oh wow i didnt even realise that was there!

My guild arnt very nice people i have to admit!

I will remove it if its a problem..?

Hey guys thanks for the reponses! Thanks for the anti wow responses, You made me laugh!

I could try different games but at the end of the day my friend is only really going to be playing wow on this machine so if it doesnt work for wow its useless. I know it will see if its just wow related or not so i will give a couple of games a try and see.

Tonight im going to take the graphics card out of my pc and put it into my friends and see if its ok then. I have a feeling that it will work once i put in my card.

I will try out the 182.50 drivers Gog suggested aswell.

Whats the normal warrenty on xfx cards? Because its more than a year old so its out of the 1 year warrenty now.

If its out of warrenty would taking it apart and redo the thermal paste on all the chips help atall?
