BFG 6800 GTOC, 2 cards dead possibly a third

I have a DFI nf4 lanparty board, AMD 3200+ Venice (Oc'd to 2.6), Gskil HZ 2 gig ram, Soundblaster card, OCZ 520 powerstream PSU (have a 700 Gamexstream, just haven't installed it yet). Bios on the board, I believe it's Tonys 714, something like that its been awhile.

 

All of this resides in a Stacker case. I think its good air flow. Couple 120's on the front pushing air in, 1 120 and 2 80s on the back pulling air out. 1 80 on the top pulling air out.

 

I have gone through 2 BFG 6800 Gtoc cards and have noticed a third one having issues.

 

Lately playing World of Warcraft, only game I play, the screen will go black and the machine goes into a suspend mode. I have to turn it off and back on. I have noticed the light on the video card going off too, so it's shutting down and gets pretty hot. Which is what I'm assuming is causing the shutdown.

 

I have had this problem before with the other cards until they just die off.

 

Anyone have any ideas on what to do?

Video card is not OC'd at all.

 

I can't figure out the problem. The BFG techs said I should update the BIOS to the dfi board, but it's running tmods 7042bta. Shrug ...
