When I was running ATI Tool this is what it looked like:


Here's two more images to take a look at:

What's up with that? I'm assuming that means something is wrong. And I sent my video card to VisionTek a while ago to get it fixed and I got it back last week. I don't think they did a very good job of fixing it.

My video card is the VisionTek Xtasy RADEON X800 Pro 256MB

There artifacts, your card is either overheating or the overclock is to high.

Those are artifacts.

Could be oc'd to high or could be youre temp of your card.

I've always had it at this setting. I never messed with my Video card setting. and it's been fine. I didn't have any problems until mid january, so i sent the card to the manufacture and they fixed it. or so i thought they did. i didn't start getting these artifacs until a few days ago.

any suggestion as to what i should do?

Is that stock? If not you should return it to stock and make sure its not doing that. If it still is there is still a problem with your card overheating, send'er back. If at stock it does not to it try finding max core and mem again. Just because it worked before doesnt mean that after the repairs it will be 100%. If your serious about this stuff maybe an aftermarket fan to cool wouldn't be a bad idea.

Problem solved. Called VisionTek about 30 minutes ago and the said they're going to replace my card. So I won't have my computer to use to about a week or so.
