Probably a defective RAM heat sink on your video card, my 9800 pro had a similar problem (vertical stripes) one of the heat sinks shattered and did not cover the chip fully.
Warranties are golden. I burn through hard drives, I just RMA them every 8 months or so at the first sign of trouble
Glad to hear it all worked out for you
