that is why im suggesting you RMA the card, and get rid of your headache. it doesnt "seem" like you or your system is at fault. bad cards happen.

Does this only happen while your gaming? Is the problem similar when playing both games (freezing, with red dots?)

If so, you may have a faulty card.

RMA = return merchandise authorization. send it back for a new one.
