Problem: Glitchy screen graphics and occasional crashes. I have included pictures since I find it hard to describe what is actually happening. Occasionally the video card will just crash, forcing a hard reset.
When playing video games, sometimes the screen will glitch. Usually happens after an hour of gameplay. The problem is not solved by exiting out of the video game. In addition, I have experienced this problem through several different video games, but never when the computer is idle.
If anyone can diagnose what is happening to my computer, that will be very much appreciated.

- Restarting the computer, works until I decide to have fun again
