OK I believe after looking at your pics that the video card is overheating and or is dying.
I need to see one more set of pics if you don't mind. The back of the system and especially the connections in the slots and even more specific the video card.
Thanks for being so patient and understanding thru all this.

Pics are great.
Older style card and it looks like the system is cramped with some airflow issues.
Now that you have taken the card out and blew everything out.
Does the system seem to be working any better?
