I bought my Asus 750ti in late March. I've been having a lot of crashes when gaming recently where the screen will begin to flash green pixels and after a few times the screen will become covered with these green pixels, freezing the computer. I have tried to change drivers, increase power supply, and adjust the time delay registry key but to no avail. Here is a picture taken from my phone of the display freezing during a game of League of Legends

If anybody has any suggestions on troubleshooting or if this is a situation where I should use the warranty please let me know. Thanks!
 
My guess is the GPU or RAM modules on the Graphics Card are overheating.

Download GPU-Z or MSI-Afterburner or HW-INFO to monitor temperatures during gaming.

Anything over 70°c is cause for concern, anything over 80°c is serious.

You can adjust fan speeds with MSI-Afterburner to increase cooling to the card, or point case fans directly at the card.

About 38 - 43 Degrees
 


Is that while gaming or just at the desktop?

While gaming, the highest temp my card reaches is about 50
