Before I get started, specs:
CPU: Intel Core i5-4670K @ 3.4GHz
GPU: AMD Radeon R9 290
Mobo: ASUS Z87 PRO V Edition
PSU: CORSAIR HX Series HX750 750W
(If you need anything else, let me know)
During the past week or so my computer has been displaying strange artifact-type things and it's really bothering me. I can't pinpoint whether or not it's my PCI-E slot or my graphics card itself. I'm leaning more towards the card itself right now, but idk, there are arguments both ways I guess.

The images above are from various points in the week. The first one (TV static-looking one) happened on more than one occasion before I decided to change the PCI-E slot my graphics card was connected to. The following two were from when I was in-game on FF14:ARR, after I had swapped the PCI-E slot it was connected to.
I am currently running this custom fan spread on my card using MSI Afterburner: http://i.imgur.com/MuocsVi.png (This does not appear to be a problem)
- None of the parts in my computer are currently over- or under-clocked.
- My 290 is stock.
- This appears to happen whether or not I'm in game. EDIT: Just kidding. It appears to only be happening when I close or open FF14:ARR.
If anyone has any idea what could be causing this/how I can fix it, please let me know. I've already contacted AMD about this but I don't foresee getting a response until Monday at the earliest.
EDIT: I forgot to mention, my graphics card isn't running particularly hot. I sit around 45C idle, 50C when I'm watching a video or something similar, and around 60-67C when running FF14:ARR at maximum settings.
EDIT2: Also worth noting, I sometimes get the "a display driver has crashed and recovered" message when I get the green dots. Could this be a TDR issue?
