Looks like the onset of memory errors in your video card, sometimes caused by overheating. If you're comfortable opening up your case and fiddling around inside your computer, you might see if any of your fans are caked with dust (including but not limited to the one mounted to your video card's heat sink) and brush it off or ideally blow it off with canned air or some such thing. Be careful of static electricity! Or do something else to improve air flow through your computer case in general so your video card can get more fresh air and hopefully run cooler.
It might be something else, but that's a relatively easy thing to try for the computer do-it-yourselfer.

If it has something like the Catalyst A.I., try turning that off.
