For a while I have been having graphical and memory corruptions issues while playing Team Fortress 2. Symptoms include:

• Screen blanking

In the game I was playing in an area that is similarly coloured

• Sound stuttering
  
• Graphical corruption on desktop
  
• Memory errors opening all programs
  
• Sometimes the entire system would lock up

So I am stumped on what is going on. This is what I have tried

• Undervolting and running stability test
  
• Stock voltages and running stability test
  
• Memory test...no errors
  
• Updated BIOS
  
• Updated all drivers
  
• Uninstalled and reinstalled TF2
  
• Virus scan
  
• Replaced stock GPU thermal paste

What more can I do? I have tried everything and I still get these issues. Has anyone had anything similar happen? My specs are in my sig or below:

AMD Phenom II X4 965 BE • Asus M5A88-M • Kingston 16GB DDR3 1600MHz
Mushkin Chronos 120GB SSD • WD Scorpio Blue 320GB
Gigabyte Radeon HD 6770
Antec Kuhler 620 • OCZ ZS 550W PSU • Antec Mini P180 White • Windows 7 Professional 64-bit

Reminds me of a failing GPU, try a different one?

That sucks. I do have onboard graphics, I guess I'll try that.

My discrete card is a Radeon HD 6770 and my onboard is a Radeon HD 4250. Do I need to uninstall the 6770 drivers first?

Not sure as I don't have an AMD GPU, but I would do that just to be safe.
