I can say that with confidence I had similar issues, usually around this same time of year.
My video card was failing and it was just enough temperature change to cause the problem. I thought it was Wow because 2 different computers with same setups had the same problems.
I RMA'd the cards back to ASUS and got them back all nice and happy.
1 year later, the cards are starting to do the same thing. Flickers, pop in, tearing, streaking, pulling. It's not just WoW but other games I'm playing. I figure it's time for me to clean up the CPU again and remove all the extra gunk causing the board to heat up. I know the board can suffer higher tolerances, but higher heat causes problems since the idea that the lower the temp the better the performance.
