Sorry to hear about this.

Are you overclocking the card at all? You say you recently bought the card. Is it brand new or just new to you (used)? Are the fans spinning? Is there good air flow at the card? Are the cooling fins filled with dust?

What you are describing sounds like a heat related issue or a defective card. If the card is brand new, RMA it. If it is used, perhaps remove the heat sink and apply new thermal paste and clean out the fins.

I hope that this helps at least some.
 
It never was used before, yes they're spinning. Battlefield 3 detects that i can play with Medium settings but when i start playing the game can artifact or closes and this happens:
