What could be the cause of these artifacts?

My screen is pitch black with these 2 horizontal blocks in the middle. This happens with the newest drivers. With the older drivers the pc just reboots before entering windows. What could be causing this? drivers? vram? vrm? power? Any idea? Is there anything that I can do or is it time to bin the card?

What is the card?

It could be overheating of GPU or VRAM or the card could just be dead. 

I don't think this type of thing is usually driver related.

I've opened the case and pointed three 80mm fans at the top of the gpu to make sure there was enough airflow. It didn't seem to have any effect. I wonder if something has burned inside maybe?
