I wish I had seen this last month to save me a whole lot of headache.
I encountered this exact issue in early Febuary and my rig has essentially been a brick since then. Massive artifacts in 3d, bios screen corruptions, but cpu benches didn't result in any errors. I RMAed my 8800 GTX to EVGA and received a new card shortly thereafter but same issues remained.
I'd been wanting to move to 1366 earlier so I figured now is as good a time as any. I've replaced the mainboard, cpu, RAM and PSU only to receive a nvdisp BSOD. Got fed up so I ordered a 5850 which should be delivered today. If the issue persists I'll replacve the OS Raptor hdd. If that doesn't work, then fuck it. It's spring and it's too nice to stay inside.
I hope you work it out.
