Problems with new rig

Hiya... recently picked up a new rig and I'm having some minor problems with it... Here are some basics of it:

4200+
ATI X1900XTX
2gb ocz ram
A8N-E
300gb seagate hdd

Now, the start of the problem was during installation. Three times I had my screen completly garble up and produce..well, garbage. The best comparison I have is:

Remember the NES? If you did something wrong or kicked it/etc, you would get a funky screen that looked like garbage? Yeah. Thats what it looked like...

Now, I notice an array of colors in the bottom left while I'm in game. Only some of the time, anyway....

Another thing I notice, is random alt tabbing graphic glitches. None of my other computers have ever done this. For example, when I alt tab, it does random flashes and such, and it kinda glitches out.

When I run two WoW's, I will auto-reboot as well. I don't think this has anything to do with heating (unless my BIOS is incorrect), as the temperature was fine. It seems to be more of an overload in graphics or something.

Also, I ran 3dmark06 and received approximately 5750 points. How is that for my system?

Should I be worrying about anything?
 
OCZ Powerstream 520W

I'm using the most recent ATI driver (note: these problems happened before drivers were installed AND after they were installed. This happened once in BIOS)
