Looks like GPU artifacting, can you replicate this in any other game/stress test?
Consider lowering your clock speeds in MSI afterburner and see if they disappear.

I did a furmark stress test and had no issue with that , what might be causing this you think?

 

[Gam3r01]

Age most likely, GPUs tend to artifact either as a result of overclocking, or age.
Since the 290x runs hot, its very well possible that its beginning to fail, which is a shame because that lightning is a great card.

So do i have anyother option than replacing the card if i want to play this game?

Try turning some settings down, capping FPS, or adjusting clock speeds, see if any of that helps.
Also see if you can replicate it somewhere else.
