I have PNy Geforce 6800GT, Card works, plays games stuff like that. that job it does fine. Now here is the problem if I leave computer for like 72hours on it goes weird. I got white screen with black line once, and today everything was in rainbow color on the screen. The first time it happend I reboot and everything was fine but this time no matter how many times I rebooted, I even removed hard from the socket disconnect power wire and it didn't help. Finally after 5 hours when I come back from school the card work like it suppose to. Now the question should I wait till it brakes completly or RMA it right now.

if it's fuzzing out like that on occasion, RMA it, i mean, why not be safe?

The 6800GT and above will continue to be produced for along time. The 6800NU is already being phased out and replaced by the 6600GT.

To answer youre question tho yea i would deff RMA if you think its the video card, may i ask what youre card temp is Idle and load ? What powersupply do you have ?
