Have you tried disabling you antivirus before you installed the drivers for the video card???I had one of those cards and it worked awesome once I figured out how to install it correctly.There are also certian pieces of software that interfere with it.But that is dependant on the MB chipset and bios version.Goodluck.

Run memetest86+ and check for memory errors.
Take the cover off the side and try blowing a fan on the card to see if you have the same problem.
