Hello All,
I posted an issue a few months back about my GC having artifact issues here is the article.
http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/answers/id-2109029/sapphire-260x-2gb-edition-artifacts.html
Now after doing some more testing, I took the GC to work and got one of the technicians to test the PC we tested it for two days and no problem occured. So while that was being tested I put an old ATI Radeon HD 3450 GC in my pc to rule out any mobo problems or ram, and that graphics card worked fine work weeks.

I can't RMA because if I do Sapphire will see the card, check its working fine and probably send it back, this problem only happens at times, all though has happened just now and yesterday. I am now really really sure that it cannot be a GC issue (hardware side) because if I scroll, highlight the artifact, right click, minimize the window the artifact would disappear if it was a hardware artifact surely it would not do this right?
That above image happened while I was browsing BBC news..
