Video Card Failing or Software Problem??

I have been playing World of Warcraft for quite some time and have never had a problem...until today. I try to login and the screen has some crazy artifacts all over it (pic below). I installed new drivers/old drivers to no avail. I checked all the connections inside and outside my case, but no help. I downloaded 3dMark to see if other things gave this problem, and the first test it ran had the same problem. What else could cause this, and what should I try next??

My specs are:

Intel 3.4Ghz
1GB DDR - Dual Channel
Intel 915PBL motherboard
Leadtek 6600GT

wow alot of people posting artifact problems with their vid card today. try several diff drivers. i tried a lot and so far i only found 3 that works for me.
 
The sad part is that I've been playing it everyday for months with the same drivers, and it just stopped....no driver change.
 
I tried about 5 different drivers, and no effect. I used driver cleaner as well, but it didn't make a difference....almost time to RMA my card I guess. I may try a clean windows install unless I get a better idea from someone first.
