Considering this rig:

  • i7 2600K
  • 8GB RAM Corsair Vengeance kit 10-9-10-27 @1866
  • HD 4870
  • PSU Corsair AX 1200

I recently upgraded to a HD 6970 and I am getting the following not so nice screens (click to zoom in):

Has anyone any similar trouble at all? I am thinking that the card is DOA but could it also be the Mobo? Since I am in the BIOS I can't think how the mobo could be the problem. HD 4870 works perfect btw regardless of what I throw at it.

Is there any way to prove that the card is OK?

Those lines are called artifacts. for more info, and maybe ideas on how to fix, see this related question.

To prove its OK, plug it into another compatable motherboard.
