Sounds like either a driver issue or the card is overheating.

Tell us what GPU you have.

Check for dust and clean it, upgrade your drivers as well.
 
Artifacts are a physical symptom which isn't drivers although they can play in some part a role in this. Turn the fan speed to 60% or higher and take note of the temps. If they still appear then you may as well contact customer service for RMA or refund.
