It's not temperature related as I tried a card with active cooling (noisy as hell BTW), which leaves compatibility .... I have ordered a EVGA 8600GTS, it should arrive within the next few days.

Or did I miss something?
Well yes, you might have very bad luck and got faulty cards, but I hope not. :-)

Here are a few more things I can think of:
  1. The AC (wall) power might not be very "clean" causing interference
  2. There might be another electronic device near your PC/screen that could cause interference (TV, Hi-Fi, AirCon, etc)
  3. There might be a PCI card in your PC near to your GFX card causing interference (sound card, multi I/O card, etc)
  4. Maybe your screen?
