Update video drivers, look for patches on game websites! If not try stress testing your video card, check for glitches in that?

That's classic artifacting, you might want to tone down your game settings, clean out the fan on your video card, as well as other fans inside your machine to maximize airflow & reduce component overheating in your machine.

i dl a new control panel for my nvidia set that shows temperatures. they are as follows.

cpu 37
system 55
gpu1 68
voltage cpu 1.5500 v
cpu fan 3375 rpm
i turned off shadows on nwn2 and i also took the side off my computer. still have same problem.
and i have dl the newest drivers and patches for the games as well as my driver and direct x.

ok, i blew out my fans and changed the settings to farenheight..however u spell it and it is now
cpu 97
system 118
gpu1 129
i also get a warning message when booting up my pc...warning chip fan fail or speed too low. and it advises me how to turn off that message or set it different.
my power supply is
thermaltake pure power 500
atx 12v 2.0
ac input 115v/9a 230 v/5a
frequency 47-63 hz
+3.3v & +5v combined 220w
dc output

+3.3v - 22a
+ 5v - 32 a
+12v -14a
-12v -.3a
+5vsb -2a
dont know what any of that is..is taken from side lable of my powersupply.
the voltage has a red dot and the monitor thing says it is low voltage..the 1.5500v voltage for the cpu.
