It's not usually that severe, rather it's just random pixels appearing all over the screen, but I can definitely see it heading that way as the problem worsens. However, one of the systems crashes was the entire display recoloring different parts of the game I was playing neon red, blue, and purple, so I'm sure it is the GPU. I'll look into some new and used cards.

Any form of artifacting is a huge sign of the GPU hitting the dirt, especially of the drivers aren't at fault

you can get one for less than 200 bucks from there

if it's overclocked any resetting back to default may make it last a tiny bit longer
