So I just bought an ASUS ENGTX570 DCII video card, and I've had almost nothing but problems with it. Crysis 2 and Just Cause 2 crashes all the time (which research shows isn't too special), but I'm getting these weird artifacts on Battlefield BC2. Any ideas? I've tried quite a few different driver versions and swapped out the card once already.
@Geneicus I had done that once and had the exact same issues. Card would work totally fine for a while, and then it keeps glitching up like this. I'm now RMA'ing it for an EVGA GTX 570 with standard reference clock speeds. Slightly cheaper, and hopefully a lot more stable. Plus it only takes up 2 bus slots.

have you switched it out for the same card yet?

@NextGenArtists There's the kicker. I'm using an Asus P6T Deluxe v1 motherboard. I just confirmed this morning that this weird effect happens when running 3D Mark 11 as well. The interesting thing is that the card was working fine for about a week and didn't have these weird issues. I'm trying to decide if I want to swap out for the same card one more time, or just go a different route altogether

Maybe the card's incompatible with your motherboard. I suggest a board update that's more reliable on asus hardware. Try a few different games, if those have similar problems then it's definitely the card. If not, then it could be the games aren't supported with that card. Either way you will need to replace something.
