WoW GFX BUG!!!

I have the best gfx bug since... ever!! Here are just a few examples of the amazing art work my GFX bug can create.

On a more serious note... HOW DO I FIX IT!?!?
I've tried everything known to man. I've installed the latest gfx drivers, all the basics etc...

Any ideas?

I had the same problem sometimes with my ati 9800pro. Seems like it happened when it overheated.

I replaced the gfxcard.

Yep, overheating.

I get the same issue occasionally.

Take the side off your PC. Then if that doesn't work, take the card out, clean the dust out of the fan/heatsink, put it back in...

Alternatively, alt-tab out of the 3D application for a while, let it cool down...
Now I run a tech website.

Lol cheers guys...

I now have a industrial B&Q mini-fan pointing directly at my GFX card. This seems to have solved the problem.
