I'd bet $5 you're overheating your video card, get in there with a can of compressed air and clean out all the dust.

Also as it's winter in the northern hemisphere make sure your computer isn't placed near a heat vent.

Did that and nothing :'(

Try the following:

0) Set all your WoW in-game settings to minimum, unload all add-ons.
1) Uninstall then install your graphics card drivers, then your motherboard drivers if that doesn't work.
2) System Restore Windows to a point in time before the issue began.
3) Ensure that Windows is up-to-date.
4) Uninstall then install World of Warcraft.
5) Reinstall Windows.

If these don't work, it's probably a hardware issue like your PSU dying. Is your power supply fan making alot of noise? It could be on its way out.

my sister had the same problem, we replaced her "$75 graphics card (4 years ago)" and it worked fine afterwards. but check everything out and maybe even try moving your computer to a cooler location.

either your graphics driver is fucked up, your graphics card is fucked up, or your power supply is fucked up.

either way you need new hardwarez.
