I just built a brand spankin' new rig a few days ago and, upon booting up Planetside 2 and playing for a few hours, found a weird graphical glitch.

I would be running (more often in an area w/o rendered structures) and the screen would briefly flash white with bands of color vertically down the screen. I'm unsure why it is happening, but I'm wondering if I might have to RMA the card or not.

Another issue is (both times when playing WoW) the display would just cut off for a few seconds and then come back on as though nothing had happen. This issue happened prior to the former one with the color so I don't think it's a matter of my monitor, but we'll see, I suppose.

My setup

CPU - Intel i7 4770k OC'd to 4.3 GHz
Heatsink / Cooler - Noctua DH14
GPU - EVGA gtx 760 Superclocked (Was overclocked, but upon seeing these issues I dropped it back to default with MSI afterburner)
Mobo -Asus z97-A motherboard
RAM - Avexir 8gb 1600 DDR3
PSU - EVGA Supernova 750W 80plus bronze
Monitor - HP w2216h (1.5-2 y/o, got it from a friend cheap)

Let me know if anymore info is required!
