^^ That. Overheating or bad memory or both, most likely.

Should have bought an NVIDIA card instead of an AMD, lolz. Just trolling, but it certainly sounds like your GPU is on its way out.

Could be something as simple as updating your drivers man...so many possibilities.

Actually, I keep experiencing hilarious effects when I've had the client up for a long while, f.ex the gate activation bubbles, rat explosions etc go all weird, and it lasts until I restart the game itself. It might very well be the same thing (or it's related).

Although, I'm not going to fully discount the possibility of overheating, since I've no idea what he's done with his hardware etc.

Did you just update your graphics drivers? Catalyst 12.4 took a massive dump over a number of games including Eve and Diablo III. AMD put out an update that fixed it for me but ymmv.
