Hey guys, I've encountered an interesting problem that I hope doesn't warrant the trashing of my 560 Ti. Here are my rig specs:
My Purchase date: 9/26/2011
Place of purchase: Newegg.com
Product: 560 TI OC2 1024 MB
System information: Motherboard: MSI 750-G55
CPU: AMD Phenom X4 Black Edition Zosma
Memory: 2x2 GB PC 1600 G.Skill
PSU: Antec BP550 Plus 550W Continuous Power ATX12V V2.2 80 PLUS Certified Power Supply
I haven't had any major problems with the 560 Ti (over a year of ownership) until now. I packed up my desktop when my University classes got out, transported it to my parents house for christmas. I had no problems with the 560 until I set up my tower at home, where I experienced this strange artifacting upon booting, startup, and windows. I didn't change any drivers or anything really, so it could be the transportation, but I do that every month or two, with no problems until now.
Does anyone have any experience with these sorts of artifacts? Or perhaps if anyone has any words of wisdom for PNY's warranty policy, I am not yet sure whether it is under warranty still or not.
Here are some images I took with my phone to illustrate the artifacts.

I welcome any questions or advice, I am really stuck here and hoping against the worst. Thanks in advance,
Nick
