Possible graphics card problem?

I bought a new PSU, Antec 430W, and still have the same problem so that was a waste of £50, So now its obviously the graphics card, what could be causing it and how do i fix it?
 
have u tryed running some thing like prime95 ??
I found that my fans all dropped from about 2000 RPM to 1800 under stress testing, which was the PSU, but as u said u have got a new one.

Try stressin the CPU and RAM, see if that causes any problems.

Why am I not shocked? I don't mean to come across as a **** and it's definitely not directed at you, but I've had such a headache with PSUs over the last couple of years that I knew outright your PSU was good enough.

Sometimes though people on this forum have to stick their oar in and there goes £50.
 
also try taking it out, and putting it back in again, might just have a few dust mights living down the slot,

Having a little rave when it gets hot..... :confused:

Jumping a round like little rave bunnys !!!
 
Try taking your graphics card out, taking off the heatsink/fan and giving it a proper clean, and reseat it with some good thermal paste, I've had to do this before and it has droppped the temps by loads.
