Today I booted up my computer and tried sniper elite V2, it came up with weird green things on parts of the menu and stuff, I was like "must be the game, whatever" then, I went to WoT (World of tanks) and I noticed the same thing on one of the tanks.... I don't know what it is, but does it mean something might be wrong with my parts?

Makes that tank look pretty cool IMO lol but it might be a faulty cable, try checking your display cable and trying a different cable type if possible. If your GPU is overclocked it might be overclocked too high and be causing this.

My Current Build: 

Intel i5 3570K @ 4.4GHz 1.11V, Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO, Asrock Z77 Extreme4, Corsair Vengeance 8GB 1600MHz, Samsung 840 EVO 250GB, Asus GTX 760 DCII Overclocked, Corsair CX600M

hmm i dont see anything in the picture :S but it could be a gpu failure unfortunately it kinda sounds like that :S

 

edit: wow i though that was a camo on the tank lol yea i think that might be your gpu either its not getting enough power or its dying :S

The thing is, its only select tanks or things, so I'm confused....

Lime green and hot pinks are common artifacts. Lower your OC.

I'm just a BIT annoyed since they gave me a facotry OC and it does this :/ and this is the first time it happened since I bought my 770 a year ago.

 

I also have a warrenty on my parts through Microcenter, should I just go ask them for  a new one or something? >.<

You say a year...?  If you've gamed pretty heavily on it for a year, it's probably had it. Have you noticed temps over 80*C often? I would def say exchange it.

I have a problem with my MOBO which creates horrid temps on my 8350 and I'm brining it to microcenter for a new one soon, and it might have hit temps 80c+ because of the CPU...?

And what reason should I state when I exchange it at microcenter as well as my mobo?

 

 

But shouldn't mmy GPU last more than a year anyway? >.<

Sure. The defective mobo caused case temps to  climb and now your card is artifacting. Sorry about the delay. Didn't get much sleep so decided to nap.
