when i was playing battlefield 3 on some maps i get a weird black and white from specific locations i was wondering if maybe one of my graphics cards was dying my system is pretty old just trying to hang on for the newest card to come out so what should i do it plays fine on my laptop with the 8800gtx cant figure out why it makes them took cards part cleaned them and applyed new thermal paste is my case not ventlating good cause it acts like the system is getting hot the cards are not overclocked there xfx 9800gtx+ in sli could it be a bottleneck with the e6600

It might be an AA setting on your video settings in-game. See if fiddling with some of those, or change the resolution to 59 hz instead of 60. Those kinds of errors happen on older cards, but are usually fixed by bypassing whatever coding problem there is through changing a video setting.
